Lexus Berry was able to narrowly escape the tumbling debris as her apartment building in Davenport, Iowa collapsed. Her wife needed to have he leg amputated to pull her from the rubble. Berry says local officials aren't 'telling the full story.'
Authorities in Davenport, Iowa, are"not telling the full story" about Sunday's apartment building collapse according to Lexus Berry, whose wife, Quanishia White-Berry, was rescued from the rubble on Monday.
Officials had said demolition of what remains on the block would begin on Tuesday, as it is structurally unstable, but this was delayed after 52-year-old Lisa Brooks was found in the wreckage on Monday. Several dozen people protested against a potential demolition on Tuesday, urging authorities to first locate the two missing men. They chanted"demolition is homicide," with one protestor waving a homemade placard reading"Find Them First."
Lexus expressed some frustration with the local authorities, commenting:"The people that are having press conferences, the mayor—they're not telling the full story."
