A tree at the corner of Hwy. 59 and Locust Street in Tarkio, located on the Torrey Pines property, toppled a huge branch onto the highway Thursday, April 25, 2019. Thankfully, no cars were damaged and no one was hurt in the incident.

Tarkio Police Chief Tyson Gibbons and Tarkio Police Officer Jesse Bolin are waiting for assistance.

The traffic was backed up from the south city limit sign to the north one until city crews could get the branch moved off the roadway.
