The toppled tree also just missed several other cars that were parked on the street.

Power lines were also knocked out by the tree, leaving neighborhood residents in the dark for several hours.

Electricity appeared to have been restored as of 4 a.m. but the tree was still blocking some homeowners from being able to drive out of the neighborhood.
