A Texas mother has described the devastating moment her four-year-old son was swept away from her in the torrential floods ravaging the state

Chelsey and Aaron Warren lost Lucas, their only child, after their car became stuck in rainwater on their way home from a friend’s house in the early hours of Sunday.

The family of three had been driving home on County Road 528 in Burleson, near Fort Worth – an area which has been ravaged by the catastrophic storms.

Chelsey said their car began filling up with water so she grabbed hold of Lucas and the three attempted to flee on foot when tragedy struck. 

‘The current came up real high and he just let go,’ she told NBC5. ‘I didn’t hear anything from him, I think he just went under.’
