A tornado killed a two-year-old boy and injured his mother on Wednesday when a tree fell on their house in suburban Detroit.
It comes as emergency workers in Maryland were responding to reports of collapsed structures with people trapped inside after a tornado there.
Officials in Livonia, Michigan, said in a post on the city’s website that the quick-developing tornado struck several neighbourhoods in the city on Wednesday afternoon.
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.
