Part of the roof of Marquette's Westwood Mall falls in

MARQUETTE, MI— Heavy snow load caused a portion of the Westwood Mall’s roof to cave in Wednesday.

It happened less than 24 hours after the roof of the Ishpeming VFW collapsed.

One store, the Bargain Barn, suffered significant damage. It’s unknown if any of the other stores in the mall were damaged. No injuries, however, were reported.

The mall is closed until further notice.
