A massive tree fell onto a moving SUV in Loudoun County on Friday, entrapping and seriously injuring the adult driver and a child.

The two victims and another child were driving along Purcellville Road near Mayfair Crown Drive around 7 p.m. The tree fell, crushing the driver and front passenger's seat of the car, fire officials said.

A child in the backseat was able to escape with minor injuries, fire officials said.

The road was closed as crews cleared the scene.
