Lorry knocks over tree which falls onto passing woman
This is the shocking moment a lorry knocks over a tree which plunges to the ground and flattens a woman.
The two women had just stepped out of a truck after being given a lift in Bulacan, Philippines, on Wednesday (March 21).
But on the other side of the road, a large white lorry can be seen trying to squeeze through the narrow gap.
It then clips a large tree on the pavement which breaks in half and plunges the ground.
One woman in a white top is clipped by the branches but stands back up clutching her head while her friend in a yellow top is knocked down when the tree topples over onto her.
Passers-by rushed to help the stricken woman who came round from being knocked unconscious and was taken to hospital for treatment.
Athena Cruz, who works at a nearby office, said: ''We don't personally know the women, they were brought to the hospital after what happened.
''It was really shocking, everything that happened was really an accident. Nobody wanted what happened.
''The truck hit the tree when it stopped to unload a passenger on the other side of the road. There was very little space on the road because of the illegally parked vehicles.''
