LAFAYETTE, Ind. (WTHR) - A two-year-old Lafayette boy has died a week after his neck got stuck in the window of a vehicle.
Logan Vanderkleed was flown to Riley Hospital for Children at IU Health after he was revived at the scene after medics could not find a pulse. His family said Logan was also without oxygen for 40 minutes.

A family friend started a Facebook page to update Logan's progress at the hospital. During that time, thousands of well-wishers got behind the family, praying and pulling for his recovery.
As the prognosis got worse, the family made plans to donate Logan's organs.
He died early Thursday morning in his mother's arms.
"We are comforted knowing he is in the best place possible," Lisa Vanderkleed wrote on Facebook. "It will be hard for sure though...Thank you for your prayers and please continue to pray for all of us, especially his sister Kendra. You all say I'm strong, but you are all the strong ones."
Logan's heart valves will be able to be donated. A GoFundMe page in support of the family has raised more than $16,000.
