Trees on the attack in Brooklyn

Tree branch clocks Brooklyn man playing dodgeball:

It was the tree, not the ball, that tagged him out.

Justin Calicchio, 23, and his pals were playing dodge ball in Carroll Park in Brooklyn when he was clobbered by a broken branch.

 ”I blacked out,” he said last night from his bed in Lutheran Hospital.

“Everything is starting to become clear again. My girlfriend has been telling me about it and I’m starting to remember now.”

His Carroll Gardens pals had to team up with a paramedic to lift the tree-sized limb.

“It happened in a spilt second,” said Christian Miron, 21. “It was too fast and the branch was too big to even run away.”
