in Santa Cruz County during this week's windstorms. The boy's family is calling his survival a miracle.
The little boy was in the living room of the home on Bobcat Lane in Boulder Creek when the top of a massive redwood came down on Tuesday evening. Milo's lower body was pinned underneath. When firefighters arrived they had to pull out saws and cut the tree in order to free him. His parents say that neighbors were among the first to rush in to help save their child.
"I think they could hear me screaming," said the boy' mother, Catherine Smith. "And just the immediate neighbors around, they all just kind of went full force and immediately started helping. I know at least two neighbors were up in the house with Milo after I was no longer in the house and other neighbors were trying to contact 911."
