A former maintenance employee at the collapsed building in Iowa has claimed he warned the owners of the structure’s deteriorating conditions three years before it tragically fell down.
Three men are still feared trapped under the rubble following the 28 May collapse of the six-storey apartment building, Davenport authorities said during a Friday press conference. The search has transitioned into a recovery effort following revelations that neither the owner nor city officials warned tenants of a structural engineer’s report indicating a wall of the structure was at imminent risk of crumbling.
