One Dead and Four Injured After Falling Trees in New York as Worst Storm Approaches

AD27 September · 05:4054 min ago

A severe storm hitting the northeastern United States on Saturday evening resulted in one death and four injuries, including two children, after trees fell in Brooklyn. The 56-year-old victim died when struck by a falling tree, while four others were injured in a separate incident at a playground; all victims are reported stable. Thousands of residents across six states lost power, leading to cancellations of events like Ed Sheeran concerts and over 3,000 flight disruptions. Meteorologists predict the storm will intensify with full force on Sunday morning as it moves through New Jersey and Long Island, bringing heavy winds, rain, and expected flooding.
