The Tip Line lit up this afternoon as a tree fell in downtown Martinez – bringing some power lines and a power pole down with it and damaging some unfortunate cars parked in the area.
There were no injuries, we’re happy to report, but Martinez PD shut down the 600-700 block of Ward, Green, Masonic and Mellus Streets and called in PG&E to help untangle things.
Streets are slowly reopening but it was just another thing to have to think about on a Friday today.
amazing no one was hurt…
We were jogging in there about an hour before this happened.
Crazy last couple of days.
