A toddler was killed and his mother critically injured Wednesday when a tree crashed into their Michigan home during a tornado, officials said.

The 2-year-old and his mom were enjoying an afternoon nap together when “a massive tree was uprooted, falling onto a house and through the roof, landing on a bed,” the City of Livonia announced.
