Large tree limb down at 57th & Palatine

March 16th, 2010 · 3 Comments

Several PhinneyWood readers report that a large tree limb is down at 57th Avenue and Palatine Avenue, just a couple blocks west of the Woodland Park Zoo.

Police have crime scene tape up to block off the area. The limb appears to have landed right next to a vehicle. And yes, there were television choppers overhead.

Thank you, James, for the photos. Thanks to Alex and Jeff and everyone else for the tips!

    “Crime scene tape”?? Has a crime been committed? “Television choppers overhead” must have been a slow news day. So now we know who will hear a tree fall in the city.

    Calling it “flagging tape” might be better. The TV choppers seem like a little much.

    It’s also lousy reporting.
