Structural Damage, Concrete Roof Collapse

Madison describes how government tanks rammed the staircases of the building, preventing residents like David Thibodeau from reaching their families. She details the collapse of the "bunker" area, which was actually a refrigeration room with a heavy concrete roof. According to Madison, the ramming caused the roof to fall and crush women and children seeking shelter inside.
