IIRC, the tree would have attacked and/or killed hikers/campers if they left their trash on the ground. Although the tree was protecting the forest, police wouldn’t have accepted deadly retaliation even if both parties were human. Nick, as law enforcement and Grimm, reacted to the tree’s extreme response, not it’s personal position on the environment. Are you suggesting that because the tree’s method of protecting the environment represents it’s Wesen culture/heritage, Nick shouldn’t have interfered with natural procession?
No, I'm not suggesting that the tree's method of protecting the environment represents its wesen culture/heritage. You asked how Nick and Hank would have written up their attack by a tree. I'm saying there wouldn't be an attack upon Nick or Hank because they wouldn't be ruining the environment. They would be conducting an investigation.
If the tree attacked littering hikers or bicyclists, that's going to be reported as a missing person case. They're not going to find the bodies because the tree would hide them. The only thing Nick and company might find are the hikers' belongings, if they happened to leave them somewhere or a bicycle. But belongings and a bicycle could be anywhere in the forest and not necessarily within the vicinity of the killer tree.
The best way to frustrate a cyberbully is to ignore him.
