They said that it is a miracle given the extent of the damage to the two cars.

“To imagine people walked out of there without a scratch, that is nobody but God,” said witness Stella Kathuri.

The tree fell on a Crossover SUV and a sedan. Both cars had extensive damage to their trunks and back seat areas.

A portion of Jimmy Carter was blocked off while crews cleared the road and towed the cars, but it has since reopened.
