Potholes Filled With Tiny Christmas Trees In North Attleboro

NORTH ATTLEBORO (CBS) - We are still more than two weeks away from Thanksgiving, but someone is in the Christmas mood in North Attleboro.

A few potholes on Route 1 at the Fashion Crossing Plaza entrance were filled with tiny Christmas trees.

North Attleboro Police posted photos of the trees on their Facebook page Monday.

One person replied "Funny and cute but not helpful."

"While the placement of the small tree is amusing (though it is a bit early for decorating), residents should understand that placing obstructions within the roadway could be dangerous and cause damage to vehicles and possible accidents with the persons creating the hazard would be responsible for," Public Works Director Mark Hollowell told WBZ-TV in an email.
