Friday night’s strong winds blew a huge tree right into an Ontario home, knocking down power lines and forcing rescue crews to work around live wires.
The home of Shawna Marsco and Nathan Green, mother and son, and their upstairs neighbor, was partially crushed when a massive tree fell during powerful winds in Southern California.
When the pine tree -- which neighbors say is over 100 years old -- fell, it clipped the home, demolishing one side of it and trapping Marsco and her son inside, as well as their upstairs neighbor. "I noticed electrical wires crossing the street and cars are just driving over them," Lafonda Lara, a neighbor, said.
