Crews worked for nearly an hour to remove the roof and parts of the tree and then lift the tree to get the victims out.
A tornado killed a two-year-old boy and injured his mother on Wednesday when a tree fell on their house in suburban Detroit.
A massive tree was uprooted and fell onto the family’s house and through the roof, landing on a bed where the woman and her two-year-old were sleeping, officials said. A two-week-old sibling who was in a crib in a separate room was not injured but taken to a hospital for an evaluation, Livonia Fire Department chief Robert Johnson told WDIV-TV.“Our hearts are broken, too, and we send our deepest sympathies.”
A representative from the weather service called it a spin-up storm that did not show up on their radars in enough time to issue a warning, according to city officials.
