Tornado sweeps through Livonia (MI), killing 2-year-old
A 2-year-old was killed Wednesday when a tornado swept through Livonia and toppled a tree that landed on the family's house.
His mother and 2-month-old sibling were hospitalized after a tornado rapidly tore through the city, the National Weather Service said.
"We were informed by the Livonia Emergency Management that a 2-year-old child was killed, and his mother and a 2-month-old infant were injured," said Steve Considine, a meteorologist with the weather service in White Lake Township. "This was due to a tree that fell on their home."
Livonia residents reported there were no warning sirens sounding ahead of or during the storm. The weather service said it didn't issue a warning, saying the tornado developed rapidly and did not allow the agency time to alert residents.
