Big Morning, Big Tree

This morning our buzzer rang at 12:30 and we were very surprised to see a cop at our door.
Cop Lady, "Are you David McKinnley." (what's with that... why do they think he has a 'L' in his name!?).
Dave, "Yes."
Cop Lady, "Do you own a white Toyota pick-up truck?"
Dave, "Yes."
Cop Lady, "We need you to move your truck, a big branch feel earlier and the trimmers need the space that you're in. Don't worry, your car wasn't hit."

I think "huge" was an understatement. And it wasn't a "branch," but an entire chunk of tree with a ton of branches. About 1/5 of the tree snapped and hit the ground a few feet from Dave's truck. No one around was sure of the cause and as far as I know no one was injured. Here are some pics of our morning...

This is what I saw as I walked towards the street in the alley

Here is a view from the other side.

Pictures of Dave, his truck, and the mess.
