ROSWELL — A large tree fell across the intersection of Mountain Laurel Drive and Oakhaven Drive in Roswell early Thursday morning, completely blocking the road.
What’s happening: The tree came down at about 7 a.m., shutting down the intersection entirely.
What this means for you: If you drive through that neighborhood, avoid the area and find another way around. Crews expect to have the road cleared within 2 to 3 hours.



The path forward: Roswell Fire Department said it will post an update when the road reopens.
