'Landmark' Christmas Tree In Olde Town Arvada Knocked Down By Wind Storm
ARVADA, Colo. (CBS4) - Arvada's "landmark" Christmas tree couldn't withstand the severe wind roaring across the Denver metro area on Wednesday. The tree toppled over at around 1:30 p.m.
"The Olde Town Christmas tree was lost in the wind storm," police said on Twitter.
"I was over there waiting for a friend, and there was a crack and all of a sudden it came down," said one man.
The tree was set up on Nov. 27 which included a large, public festival. The tree sat in the square surrounded by a Christmas market. CBS4's Rick Sallinger reports some of the booths were also blown over.
No one was hurt.
