I was at that mall last summer. The roof was falling apart back then (it looked pretty getto). Pictures are available from Feb of this year showing how bad it was (shifting of the structure and bricks falling etc).

My hat is off to the rescuers as that mall was in tragic disrepair awhile ago. I can't imagine how unsafe it is now. I have family in Elliot lake still. They are fine, but it is a small community and it has been devastating for everyone.

My prayers are with the families.
