A COLLAPSED roof near Ohio State University has resulted in 14 people being rushed to the hospital.
The roof collapsed around 7:40 pm, when police and the fire department stopped by the scene.
Stephanie Duprey, a reporter for WSYX6, wrote on Twitter that people “heard a crack,” and that the roof “gave way.”
She claims all that were injured are stable.
10TV reports that the roof collapsed since “many, many students” were “on top of the roof.”
Fire Battalion Chief Steve Martin said that onlookers claimed that there were between “15 to 45 students” on a roof that wasn’t designed to hold that weight.
He said that witnesses called and reported a collapsed roof, with there being a possibility of people being trapped underneath it.
