What is the participial phrase in the sentence? As the tornado picked up speed, the debris, ripped apart by the wind, flew in different directions

The participial phrase is the start of the sentence where it says: as the tornado picked up speed. The debris is the subject, flew is the verb, in different directions is a prepositional phrase, and I believe that ripped apart by the wind is a modifier.

Thought so, thank you
