Roof Collapse Shuts FSK Mall After 75 by 75 Foot Break
A 75 by 75 foot roof section at the Leggett store in Francis Scott Key Mall collapsed shortly before 11 a.m. causing the mall and nearby stores to close. Officials blamed heavy rain and drifting snow for the failure as inspectors and engineers assess repairs. About 1,700 to 2,000 people may have been inside at the time, with evacuation praised by officials. The sprinkler and utilities were shut off, delaying reopening until systems are restored and safety checks complete.

Flat Roof Checks After Leggett Collapse
Following the Leggett department store collapse, Frederick County Education and county officials urge checks of flat roofs for drain clearance. The Frederick County Board of Education owns 54 buildings, about two thirds with flat roofs, all reportedly checked and in good shape after weekend snow. Maintenance supervisor Joe Dattoli notes regular roof inspections and snow piling checks, while Crown America cites the Leggett roof failure due to a snow drift against a parapet. County official Ron Hart notes 15 of the county’s 45 buildings involved in similar safety concerns.
