A large branch from a tree fell across 17th Ave NW just south of NW 85th.
We arrived on-scene just after 5 p.m. and crews had their chain saws out working to clean up the mess. The branch fell onto this red car causing minor damage.

That's Marcus in the orange vest from SDOT. He was great! Arrived on the scene within an hour of my call to the city. I helped him clear the large tree from the street. Thank you Marcus and SDOT!!! Way to go! My daughter thought Marcus was cool!
Was anyone there to hear it?
