Partial ceiling collapse forces Fort Myers grandma from home

Published:

FORT MYERS, Fla. Carmen Alicea complained to her landlords for months about a water leak inside her ceiling.

She was just inches away when a part of that ceiling collapsed Monday.

“My grandma was in the kitchen cooking us breakfast and it just completely collapsed,” Frankie Hernandez said. “… It scared me because my grandma was right under it.”

The sound of the collapse can be heard in this cellphone video, Hernandez said.
