Luckily no injuries.  Tree entered above kitchen table causing fluorescent light fixture to swing across table.  The crew of Engine 4 went on an EMS call at 1604 and returned at 1645 and found the damage.  Crew were in the kitchen prior to the run.

That's crazy. Talk about luck. Glad no one was hurt. 

Any structural damage to the station?

Yes. DPW was there to make it weatherproof until permanent fix. Tree punched a hole through wall.
