Rebecca Forman, 17, said she was in the kitchen of her house on Lisa Street when the crane crashed through her house.

"I saw from the corner of my eye something fall from the ceiling and I looked outside and saw trees falling, so I thought it was just trees," said Forman.

No one was injured when the crane came down on the house. The crane was being used by a tree trimming company that was hired to prevent trees from coming down in the winter.

"To slice through the roof is hard to believe cause it just took a clean slice right through the roof," said a neighbor.
