JAKARTA - Strong winds that hit the Jakarta area caused a tree located in Gang Buaya RT 001/05, Karet Tengsin Village, Tanah Abang District, Central Jakarta, to fall. As a result of the incident, a resident suffered injuries to the face and back after being hit by a tree trunk.
"One resident named Prayoga (30) became the victim, with bruises on his face and back. The victim was evacuated to the Mintohardjo Hospital," said Head of the Central Jakarta Fire and Rescue Agency (Sudin Gulkarmat) Asril Rizal when confirmed, Tuesday, November 23.
Large fallen trees are immediately cut down. However, the officers encountered problems because the fallen tree trunk hit the PLN overhead line and the electricity was still on. The kedondong tree is 60 cm long and 10 meters long.
"When the tree fell, the victim and his partner were in a shop close to the tree. One person managed to escape, but one person was hit by a tree," he said.
Central Jakarta City Park and Forest Service Sub-department officers took further action.
