Puttur: A colossal tree came crashing down right beside the government hospital, resulting in a significant obstruction that has persisted for more than an hour. The fallen tree remains untouched, creating a critical hindrance for emergency ambulances attempting to reach the hospital promptly. Additionally, the tree’s impact caused some damage to the hospital compound, raising concerns about patient access and safety.
Fortunately, amidst the alarming situation, as no vehicles or traffic were present in the vicinity when the tree collapsed. This stroke of luck averted what could have potentially become a devastating tragedy, sparing any further harm or injuries.
Efforts are now underway to urgently clear the fallen tree and restore access to the hospital, as prompt action is crucial to ensure the unhindered provision of essential medical services. The incident serves as a reminder of the importance of proper maintenance and regular checks for trees in public areas to prevent such incidents from occurring in the future.
