CAPE CORAL, Fla. — Firefighters were called to a shopping plaza off Nicholas Parkway and Pine Island Road for a partial roof collapse on Monday. Further investigation showed it was not a roof collapse, but rather clogged gutters flooding the plaza.
Do not enter yellow tape wrapped the plaza while crews investigated the cause of the water flooding the building.
All the businesses closed due to water gushing into their business. This includes Baldwin Brothers, Bruce Todd Salon, Islandside Animal Hospital and Gazoops.
They posted the following to its social media page.
We, unfortunately, have to close today, our plaza's roof caved in and has flooded and our whole plaza is being evacuated by the fire department. All boarding pets (one single kitty thankfully) are accounted for, completely safe, and being taken care of by employees and evacuated.
We apologize for any inconvenience as we have tried to quickly call all appointments to make them aware of the situation.
