Major Tree Down at 21st and G
Posted by Eric Roper
A very large tree located on the northwest corner of 21st and G streets fell late this afternoon, halting all traffic and knocking a street lamp into the University Police Department headquarters. There was no damage to the UPD building.
Officials on the scene credited hurricane force winds across the city as the primary reason for the incident. Fire Captain Leroy Cade said no one was injured, and that the Department of Public Works would be removing the tree. The crew was delayed because of numerous fallen trees across the city.
