4-month-old found alive in downed tree after Tennessee tornado destroys home: "I was pretty sure he was dead"

A 4-month-old boy has survived after a tornado in Tennessee sucked him up from his family's mobile home, which was demolished in the storm. The baby's mother said she was "pretty sure" her son had died after he was swept away by the violent storm.

Sydney Moore told WSMV-TV that when the tornado hit their home in Clarksville on Saturday, it ripped off the roof and lifted the bassinet with her son inside. Her boyfriend, the child's father, tried to grab the bassinet but was spun up into the twister as well, Moore said.

"He was just holding on to the bassinet the whole time, and they went into circles, he said, and then they got thrown," Moore said.
