Dramatic Tragedy for Tree Trimmer in Canoga Park

A LAFD alert "Long Fall" detailed the fatal fall of a tree trimmer this afternoon in Canoga Park. The risk the trimmers take on as they work is often overlooked as we yield to traffic cones.

The official alert was posted at 3:24.  No update has been provided of his identity or the status of his family's notification.

Perhaps, the next time you see trimmers along the road, as you yield to the traffic cones, a prayer for their safety and your stricter adherence to traffic safety surrounding their work area might also aid and secure their protection and focus as they work.
