Well this tree didn’t actually fall in the woods, but the age old philosophical question of whether or not it can be heard was answered when the resident of this Blue Lake home heard a loud crack, a snap and a boom.

The tree fell for no apparent reason Wednesday morning near the intersection of 550 North and Blue Lake Road

The Churubusco fire department, police and Whitley County Sheriff were sent to secure the scene and shortly thereafter Whitley County Highway crews and the electric company showed up to clean up the mess.

No one was injured in the incident, but one house did receive minor damage when the phone cable was ripped from the home and tore through the siding.
