Emergency crews swiftly evacuated everyone, thankfully with no life-threatening injuries. The structure, built before modern safety codes, highlighted how outdated construction can pose serious risks. Crews stabilized the remaining deck until contractors arrived to fully secure the scene—a sobering reminder that even familiar structures can hide hidden dangers.
