Tree falls on Western-owned house near campus

An alder tree fell from the hillside above onto the roof of a rental house owned by Western Washington University on Indian Terrace Friday morning, July 26, 2013.

The occupants were not home at the time. Western officials worked with Bellingham's Urban Forester Tree Service over the weekend to remove the tree without further damage to the house.
