A man in Yuba City, just 40 miles north of Sacramento, was killed Sunday by a large redwood tree. In the area, it was said that there were winds of up to 50 miles per hour that had caused the tree to fall. Although the man’s identity has not been revealed, the Yuba City police department states that “Through the investigation, it appeared he was possibly using a ladder to try and clear the tree away from his residence when it fell on him,” As surprising as it is, this isn’t the only death that was caused by recent weather conditions in South Carolina. Many other fatalities were reported in the area due to flooding and strong winds. The Yuba City police also stated to stay safe in the upcoming weather in South Carolina and to reach out for help when it is needed. Thank you for reading.
