About Elliot Lake Mall Roof Collapse
A section of the
Algo Centre Mall in Elliot Lake, Ontario
, was levelled when part of the roof came crashing down on June 23, 2011. The collapse led to a frantic search for survivors even as authorities confirmed the first fatality. For a time time,
tapping was heard from within the debris
. But the rescue effort was imperiled by the structure's weakness and
authorities at one point called the search off
.
The Algo Centre Mall had a history of complaints
about leaks and mould before the tragedy.
