A 52-year-old man died in the collapse and two others were injured.
On Tuesday, 52-year-old man Anthony Wright died in the collapse, at 3418 W. Jackson Blvd., and two of his relatives were seriously injured. CBS 2's Tim McNicholas, after spending two days at the scene trying to figure out what happened, city building inspectors have determined the entire building must be torn down.
The building already failed an inspection in 2015 because the owner didn't"maintain the exterior walls of a building...free from holes, breaks, loose or rotting boards or any other conditions which might admit rain or dampness..." "She paid $40,000 to the get the roof fixed, and also for the tuckpointing to get done for the part that fell in front of the building – she also paid to get that done," Scott said."She's not a contractor, so she didn't know they didn't do a complete job," Scott said.
At least eight people lived in the building, including the owner. She lived on the second floor and is related to Wright and the others were injured. She declined to be interviewed. Anthony Wright's sister and White both praised her on Wednesday.
