Tornadoes touch down across US, killing toddler in Michigan and injuring 5 in Maryland

A tornado struck suburban Detroit on Wednesday, killing a 2-year-old boy and critically injuring his mother when a tree fell on their house in Livonia, Michigan.

The quick-developing tornado uprooted a tree, which crashed through the roof and onto a bed where the family was sleeping.

Emergency crews worked for nearly an hour to rescue the victims. The toddler was pronounced dead at the scene, and the mother was hospitalized in critical condition.

A 2-week-old sibling in a separate room was unharmed.

Mayor Maureen Miller Brosnan expressed condolences, noting the lack of advance warning from the National Weather Service, which described the tornado as a “spin-up storm” that evaded early detection.

The EF1 tornado had peak winds of 95 mph and a path over 5 miles long, the Associated Press reported.
