New York State Man Dies After Tree Falls On Him
Police say a New York state man died on his property after a tree fell over on top of him. While the chances of being struck by a falling tree are pretty low, accidents such as this can happen sometimes. Older or diseased trees with cracked branches or exposed roots can pose a risk for falling over on your property. Also, the amount of heavy rain and storms the area has endured this summer can be another big factor with trees weakening.
Homeowners without flood insurance may still be able to get help after the storm. Here’s how.
A spokesperson for the New York State Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Services (DHSES) said their emergency managers have been embedded with Suffolk County since the morning of the storm and have already done initial surveys.
