A large 50-year tree caused chaos today (March 20) after falling down onto cars - with locals believing the ghost of an angry ''tree god'' to be responsible.<br /><br />The 20-metre-high hopea odorata tree plunged onto vehicles behind police accommodation flats in Pattaya, Thailand, this afternoon. Four electricity poles were also dragged down after the accident. <br /><br />Superstitious local Noi Buathong (speaking in the clip), who runs the Lalita massage shop next to where the tree fell, said her staff had dreamed the night before that a tree would fall down and told her to move her car.<br /><br />She said: ''My staff came in yesterday and said they had a dream in which an old lady the tree god Takian, said one of the trees would fall down. The tree god was angry. <br /><br />''They said we should move away from the area, so I moved my car to another place and it wasn't hit. Today it fell. I'm sure the dream was a premonition from spirits.''<br /><br />The area was closed off and electricity supplies cut while local police officers worked with volunteers to cut away the tree and remove it.
