A toddler found in a field after violent tornadoes died on Sunday after being taken off life support, ending a hopeful tale for survivors in the Midwest and South.
Rescuers were still going door-to-door in rural areas to rule out more victims.
Fifteen-month-old Angel Babcock of New Pekin, Indiana, was found after her family's mobile home was destroyed in Friday's storms. Her father, mother and two siblings were killed.
When Angel arrived at Kosair Children's Hospital in Louisville Friday night, she was opening her eyes in a hopeful sign, said chief nursing officer Cis Gruebbel.
Things turned on Saturday, when the swelling in her brain didn't decrease, he said. As the day went on, her eyes ceased to move and she continued to deteriorate. There was no sign of brain activity.
Medical staff told the family there wasn't anything more they could do.
