Fallen Tree Strikes Toyota, Blocks Lane Of Traffic On Masonic

Neighbors this morning reported another arboreal casualty to the wind and rain storm last night. Some time in the wee hours, a venerable laurel tree on the southeast side of the Masonic and Haight intersection split and toppled, crushing a yellow Toyota SUV in the process. The tree was still down and hampering a northbound traffic lane after 9am today.
