Following the accident, a 50-year-old woman from Birgu was hospitalised.
It is believed that the tree may have fallen after a large vehicle clipped the tree’s branches as it passed, leading to a large branch to collapse onto a vehicle behind it, causing considerable damage.
Police investigations are underway – drivers were being advised to avoid the area as the road had been closed to traffic earlier.
