HUNTINGTON BEACH– A woman today was threatened with arrest after she stood in front of a nearly 50-year-old tree to stop city crews from chopping it down.
Carmela Amato, 45, leaned up against a fichus tree in the 5600 block of Heil Avenue hoping the city would think twice before ripping out the massive tree that canopies the sidewalks and homes."
