Wind turns deadly
Chaos reigned across Henderson County on Monday as a violent wind storm uprooted trees, broke branches and ripped down power lines. In Etowah, a tree fell on a pick-up truck, killing the driver.
The wind storm, with winds approaching hurricane speed, toppled a large pine tree onto a passenger truck on Turnpike Road near Pine Lake Drive about 11:25 a.m., killing the driver. The N.C. Highway Patrol identified the victim as Gregory Sedgwick, 59, of Granite Falls.
