JOPLIN, Mo - The recent high school graduate who was ripped from his father's arms and sucked out a car sunroof during the tornado in Joplin, Mo., has been found dead, his family said in an emotional press conference Saturday.
Will Norton, 18, and his father, Mark, were struck by the tornado as they drove home from the commencement ceremony for Joplin High School. Mark Norton held his son with both arms as the tornado hit, but the teen was pulled out of the car through the sunroof.
Tracey Presslor, Norton's aunt, said Mark Norton's arms were broken and his bicep was shredded, apparently damaged as he tried to hold onto his son.
Will Norton's body was found in a pond near where their car was discovered, Presslor said. "Knowing that he was gone right away was really a blessing for us and we're really thankful," she said.
The family received confirmation of his death on Friday night. Presslor said the family plans to give Mark Presslor more time to recover from his injuries before making funeral arrangements.
Norton's family has chronicled their search for the missing teen on a Facebook page, "Help Find Will Norton," which has attracted more than 49,000 followers.
Norton, who created his own YouTube channel named "Willdabeast" where he posted comedic videos, planned to study film at Chapman University in California this fall
