Two hurt as oak tree crashes down on 49ers coaching outing
A sprawling, 150-year-old oak tree came crashing down during a lawn
bowling outing for 49ers coaches and their wives Saturday evening, injuring
two people.
Neither of those hurt suffered life-threatening injuries and neither is
affiliated with the 49ers. The tree was so wide that it spread from a
parking lot outside the San Jose Lawn Bowls Club in the Willow Glen
neighborhood of San Jose to over the club's green. One man in the parking
lot was injured when the tree crashed down on his car, one of six vehicles
struck. He had to be cut out of the vehicle by the San Jose Fire Department,
said club president Larry O'Dea.
A club member, a woman in her 60s, was on the green and suffered a compound
leg fracture and a gash to her head, O'Dea said. He said the group - about
20 49ers assistant coaches and their wives - scattered as the tree started
coming down. A testament to how fast it fell and how close it came to
inflicting more injuries: One unnamed assistant coach came away with scrapes
on the back of his neck.
"It was so unbelievably violent and fast," O'Dea said of the fall. "It took
five seconds. It was incredible. It just split right down the crotch of the
tree from the crotch to the roots. Everybody was yelling, 'run for your
lives!'"
Running backs coach Tom Rathman said he and his wife, Holly, heard a sharp
crack from the tree and just started running. When he looked back, he said
the tree had fallen precisely in the spot everyone had been standing moments
earlier. "Very easily someone could have died," he said.
O'Dea said the outing was hosted by defensive backs coach Ed Donatell and
that special teams coach Brad Seely, Rathman, quarterbacks coach Geep Chryst
and linebackers coach Jim Leavitt were among those in attendance. Jim
Harbaugh was not on hand. The group had been bowling for about 20 minutes
when the tree fell at about 6 p.m.
O'Dea said the tree was so big that, in the immediate aftermath, there was
no way to know how many people were trapped beneath it. He said the 49ers
assistants were busy pulling tree limbs away as the fire department and
Santa Clara County Sheriff's Office arrived on the scene.
One of the 49ers had been standing next to the woman who was injured when
the tree started to fall. After it went down, he realized the woman was no
longer next to him and the group began clearing branches to find her. "Those
guys were so helpful," O'Dea said.
There was no wind when the tree fell, O'Dea said, and the City of San Jose
had trimmed the tree a few weeks earlier.
