Strong winds toppled a tree, killing a man as he sat in a car parked in his driveway.

The damage happened in just seconds as neighbors reported hearing fierce winds and rain, then a loud crack. Several people told police they heard the tree crash, including a man who lives across the street and found his brother pinned inside his car.
