An 8-10" layer of ice and snow, coupled with saturation and extreme cold temperatures, were blamed for triggering the collapse before 9 a.m. The anchor of electrical wires, leaking natural gas lines and broken pipes led to the fire, according to the newspaper.
Portland Fire Chief Al West told The Tennessean that the single-story, concrete brick building with metal roof was a total loss. Luckily, its gradual crumbling was loud enough to give workers sufficient notice to escape.
