Fire officials say about 100 parents and kids have been evacuated from a Boston skating club over concerns its snow-laden roof could collapse.
The evacuation at The Skating Club of Boston on Saturday was among several problems in Massachusetts related to the snow that’s piled high on rooftops, and getting heavier in the day’s rain.
A Boston fire official told WBZ-AM that the club was evacuated after people spotted buckled walls and fallen bricks in a 150-foot section that had six to eight feet of snow on the roof. HOLY SHIT!
Crews were inspecting the roof to determine the best way to clear it.
Meanwhile, in Milford, a vacant building’s roof fell in, and in Hudson residents at the 97-unit Squire Estates apartment complex were evacuated over worries about snow on its three-story buildings.
