A fallen tree branch lead to a convergence of the flashing lights of emergency vehicles at the Kiddie Park in Fairfield, Texas around 8:00 p.m. on Monday, October 10, 2016.
According to Officer M. Sean Frasier of Fairfield PD, a fire started when a tree branch fell on a power line, but it went out on its own before emergency personnel arrived.
According to Parks Supervisor Jerry Hughes, the limb cause very little damage.
Although the playground area features several trees, Hughes does not expect any further problems. “This was a fluke kind of deal,” he says, as it was a “green” limb that had fallen.
