Close call for Regina family when tree falls on house

REGINA – It was a frightening morning for a family in North Central Regina Friday, but it had nothing to do with Halloween.

A large tree fell into the family’s home on the 1100 block of Retallack Street.

Three people were inside at the time, but no one was injured.

Winds were gusting in excess of 50 kilometres per hour Friday morning, though it was not immediately clear if that’s what caused the tree to fall.

The family will be staying at a relative’s house for the next few days while they make an insurance claim to SGI.
