A man carried on sleeping as a 35ft tree crashed into his home.
The beech tree fell into Oscar Henriques' spare room in Exeter, Devon at 3am - just feet from where he slept.
He was only woken when police woke him with constant phone calls an hour later.
Oscar, who lives alone, said: "I did hear a noise but I thought it may be an earth tremor so I went back to sleep.
"The next thing I knew the police were ringing me and I saw a giant tree on my house. I couldn't believe it."
The repairs to the house will cost thousands, reports the Sun.
Oscar added: I've been asking the council to sort that tree out for 24 years." |
