"BAY ST. LOUIS, Misssissippi -- Tropical Storm Gordon made landfall late Tuesday night west of the Alabama-Mississippi border, the National Hurricane Center said.
A child was killed Tuesday in Pensacola, Florida as Gordon whipped the Alabama and western Florida Panhandle coasts with tropical storm-force winds and heavy downpours, a spokeswoman with the Escambia County Sheriff's Office said.
The child, whose age and identity were not released, died when a tree fell on top of a mobile home. No one else inside the home was injured, spokeswoman Amber Southard said."
Jason Hanna, Ed Lavandera, and Nick Valencia report for CNN September 5, 2018.
