PHOTOS: It's not the kind of wake-up call Chattanooga firefighters are used to. But at least they didn't have to go very far for this one. No one was hurt when a tree fell on Station 16 on Lupton Drive early Thursday morning, according to the Chattanooga Fire Department. A post on the department's Facebook page says: "The firefighters were shaken at first, but no one was injured". Right now it's not clear exactly how much damage the tree caused to the station. But the Chattanooga Fire Department tells us "Station 16 remains open and in service following the incident as repairs get underway."
