Two workers hurt when tree falls on house

Two tree-company employees were injured when a tree failed and fell on a house on May 6, 2020, in Bullard, Texas.

A tree-trimming service was working near a house when the tree failed. The homeowners weren’t home when the incident occurred, according to a KLTV report.

Both victims were taken to a local hospital for treatment, including one in serious condition, according to a Fox 51 KETK report.

It was not clear from the reports or the accompanying pictures if the uprooted tree was being worked on or if the failure was related in any way to the work being done by the company at the time.
