Tree Falls on House, Nearly Killing Two Children and the Family Dog
posted by Lance Houston -
Startling surveillance footage captured the moment a tree crashed onto a Maryland home last week, all while two teens were inside watching TV. The video shows the two teen girls sitting in the living room with their little chihuahua, Gizmo. The girls were home from school because of bad weather and high winds.
While the girls were quietly relaxing, a massive tree suddenly came crashing through the home's roof, and landing right on top of the girls. "I was floored. I was shocked," mom Jennifer Stone said.
The damage to the home was extensive, and the family is currently unable to live there. They're temporarily living in a nearby hotel.
