ATLANTA (AP) - A parking deck at a building near the Georgia
Tech ccmpus has partially collapsed and emergency personnel were
waiting to secure the structure before searching through piles of
wrecked cars.
Atlanta firefighter Bobby Stewart says there are no immediate
reports of any injuries. He says about 50 firefighters are at the
scene, waiting until they determine if the structure was safe to
enter.
The partial collapse of the building occurred at a parking
structure near a book store and gym frequented by Tech students.
Witnes Shawn Dodson says he was eating lunch in his car on the
far side of the building.
He says “it sounded like the building was being demolished.“
