The mother of 1-year-old boy Kaiden Lee Welch, who died in Hurricane Florence’s floodwaters, has spoken out.

Dazia Lee said she has been traumatized after her child was swept away in the floodwaters in Union County, North Carolina, where an overflowing creek from Florence’s rains washed out a road. Lee reportedly drove through police barricades and onto a road covered with moving water before her vehicle was swept away.
