A large tree snapped and fell into the middle of the 4300 block of Spruce at about 5:45 p.m., damaging two cars waiting for a red light.
High winds no doubt played a part in the down tree. No injuries were reported.
“The wind has been blowing and this tree has been dead for a long time and the city hasn’t done anything about it,” said the driver of one car. “This is what you get.”
As of 6 p.m. the both lanes of the 4300 block of Spruce are closed.

It’s a wonder tall trees ain’t layin’ down.
There comes a time.” — Neil Young.
