Baytown Tree Symbol Damaged Again in Drive and Crash
A Baytown woman driving to pick up a dropped cell phone struck a historic 300 year old tree and damaged the surrounding median. She was cited for failure to stop and give information. Investigators found debris from a vehicle but could not identify the model. The tree, linked to Texian Army legends, has faced previous threats including a 1989 herbicide poisoning. The Baytown Downtown Association president plans landscaping upgrades to protect the tree and nearby area, potentially funded by city and private sources.
