Woman Injured by Fallen Tree Branch at Medfield Home

A Massachusetts woman was injured Wednesday evening after a tree branch fell on top of her outside a home in Medfield.

Fire officials said crews responded to a home on Philip Street at 6:06 p.m. where the victim was found.

It's unclear, but the victim may have been on a wooden swing that was hanging from the tree when the branch snapped.

A man inside the home told NBC Boston that the victim is a mom of three but did not identify her.

The woman was taken to Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston with a head injury. The extent of her injury is unknown at this time.
