A huge tree collapsed in a busy city centre, crushing 17 cars and killing one motorist.
Footage shows dozens of vehicles crawling along the road in built-up traffic.
The huge tree then apparently uproots on the side of the busy road, teetering forward before flattening multiple vehicles.
According to the authorities, the collapse caused one death and several injuries at around 2.20pm yesterday (7 May).

In total, around 100 rescue workers, including police officers, paramedics and Civil Defence officials, were dispatched to offer assistance at the scene.
