Photos: Driver escapes death after giant tree fell on his car at the University of Ghana

Thursday night, a giant mahogany tree fell in front of the Legon Hall, University of Ghana, which caused a huge damage to properties and blocked the main road. The tree smashed a four-wheel drive car in the process few minutes after the driver got out.

According to an eyewitness, the tree fell as a result of a pipe that had been leaking copious amounts of water under it, adding that the tree was vulnerable to falling off since it hadn’t been pruned for decades.
