KANSAS CITY (AP) — Three homes in Kansas City are facing repairs after a massive tree collapsed onto them.

The roots of the tree snapped after a thunderstorm Saturday night, KCTV-TV reported. Part of the sidewalk on Kensington Avenue came up as the tree went down. Neighbors believe the ground became so saturated that the already-leaning tree gave way.

No one was hurt but three families were displaced.
