A woman is in critical condition after being struck by a falling tree branch near Avenue Road and St. Clair Avenue West, Toronto police say.

Officers were called to the intersection just before 3:30 p.m. for reports a large tree branch had fallen on to the street.

The branch reportedly struck a woman and child, but the 10-year-old girl was not injured.

The woman, believed to be in her 30s, was taken to the hospital with critical injuries.

St. Clair was closed between Forest Hill and Foxbar roads but reopened on Wednesday.
