throughout the Bay Area have caused a redwood tree to crash into a Boulder Creek home, seriously injuring a 1-year-old baby, fire officials say.
The baby is in critical condition. Firefighters said the winds brought down the redwood into the occupied home in the Santa Cruz mountains. This happened on Bobcat Lane, where the tree "speared" into the living room of the house, pinning the child down, officials said.
The fire department said it has been inundated with calls of downed trees, trees blocking homes, and power lines blocking roads along with other wind-related damage, which is why fire officials urge people to stay in their homes during the wind storm. By clicking Sign Up, I confirm
