Jonesboro parking garage roof collapses under ice

JONESBORO — The roof of a downtown parking garage in Jonesboro collapsed Tuesday, and officials are blaming a buildup of ice and snow.

The structure is on Union Avenue, where a traffic lane is blocked off as a precaution.

City E911 director Jeff Presley told Jonesboro television station KAIT that no one was injured but several vehicles were in the parking deck at the time the roof failed.

Crews are working to clear the scene.
