Officials in Iowa are making plans to demolish a six-story apartment building a day after it partially collapsed, displacing countless residents and business owners. A ninth person was rescued Monday night, one report said. No fatalities have been reported.
City officials in the eastern Iowa city of Davenport said in a news release Monday that the property owner was served with an order for demolition of the building that was once the Davenport Hotel. Residents weren't being allowed back inside to remove their belongings due to the building's unstable condition.
"The property is currently being secured by a contractor on site this afternoon and demolition is expected to commence in the morning," the statement said.
