TULSA, Okla. — A tree fell into a woman's home during heavy storms on November 3.
The homeowner told 2 News she's thankful to be okay.
Jackie Bogash is the homeowner who survived the near tragedy.
“I was scared. I was like, what do I do now," said Bogash.
Bogash said she’s lived in her home for 48 years, and the intense winds from the storm created a moment she will never forget.
“Everything went dark. I heard a big wind shear, and I was knocked out of my bed onto the floor," said Bogash.
Bogash said the tree blocked every entrance and exit point to the house. She called the fire department, and they cut her fence to get her out safely.
“It just missed me by a hair. Yeah, it went in and almost hit me. I was in bed, and it almost hit me, so I'm lucky," said Bogash.
Bogash’s family says the tree also crushed her car, but that can be salvaged. Bogash said there is no telling how long it will take to remove the tree or fix her home.
“I'm just in shock, that’s all," said Bogash.
