Fallen tree damages home, takes out power lines in northwest Atlanta

ATLANTA — Crews are working to clear a huge tree and restore power to a northwest Atlanta neighborhood.

Channel 2's Amanda Cook said a large tree took out power lines on Bernard Street, off Martin Luther King Jr. Drive.

The tree fell on a man's house around 3:30 a.m. He was home, but was not injured. Several cars were also damaged.

Power was restored to the homes several hours later.
