Winter Storm Topples Dozens of Trees in Fullerton

Fullerton urges homeowners to file damage claims for assessment by city crews.

Overview

  • Fullerton logged reports of at least a few dozen fallen trees following overnight wind and rain.
  • City and public works crews are cutting and removing debris, with streets reopened after large trees blocked roads on Fern Street and nearby areas.
  • Home damage included a pine tree that tore into Rashad Sharif’s living room and another that crushed Michelle Wedge’s car, with no injuries reported.
  • The city is asking affected homeowners to submit online claims so crews can assess responsibility and next steps.
  • Across Los Angeles, downed trees crushed cars, knocked out power and briefly closed part of the 110 Freeway, as forecasters call for one more short round of rain Thursday that should end the week’s storms.
