Large Torrey Pine Branch Falls on Library Lawn, Taking Down Parts of Nearby Trees

In the early hours of Sunday morning, Oct. 29,  a huge branch broke from one of the Torrey Pine Heritage Trees on the Library Lawn at Orange and Sixth taking down branches of nearby trees as it fell to the ground. No people or cars were injured. The city had cordoned off the area by 8am and crews were just starting to arrive to clean the debris.

UPDATE 9:45am Crews are hard at work clearing the debris. Video courtesy of Brad Willis:
