Detroit Fire Dispatch Audio
Detroit 01:50AM April 6 2017: Detroit Fire’s Engine 29 responded to reports of wire’s down and a possible hazard at 7701 W Jefferson early this morning.
On arrival, Engine 29 reported a building collapse blocking the southbound lanes of W Jefferson.
The building had been burned previously and was already unsafe. The winds in the area at the time finished the job.
Another reason Detroit needs to pay more attention to it’s crumbling buildings.
Thankfully, W Jefferson is lightly traveled in the early AM hours and no one was injured…except maybe the buildings pride.
