Weather to blame for partial collapse of Lincoln Park school

CHICAGO — Weather is likely to blame for a partial roof collapse at a school in the city’s Lincoln Park neighborhood, a fire official said.

Crews were called to the Goldfish Swim School, at 1630 W. Medill Ave., during Wednesday afternoon’s storms.

Chief Scott Shawaluk said some roofing materials were lifted by winds that knocked over air conditioning units, causing the partial collapse. Some electrical lines were also taken down.

There was only one person inside the building at the time and no injuries were reported, Shawaluk said.
