this morning I was sitting in my car, waiting to get into my store, when I heard a loud bang. Didn't think anything of it, as trucks come and go all the time. 

When one of the guys I work with said " um it think you better get out of your car," I look behind me and there is a 2-3 foot section of concrete from the upper deck of the parking gargage swinging in the breeze.. I was like oh no....

so we (all 4 us) proceed to get out as fast as possible, and I call my hubby... he says call 911. as mall security proceeds to hop in their suv and run up to the upper deck.

not one but 2 big holes from the lovely street sweeper who decided to go fast, and jump the speed bumps and cause the damage....

Salem fire did a great job in getting our cars out of there before they cordoned off the ENTIRE parking garage through out the mall...  only parking in the open areas of the mall....

thank god no one was hurt, and the garage will be closed untill further notice....

And firefighters experience the fear of "the sky falling" on a regular basis, huh envelope? Double welcome to the club.

…and here we are worrying about bridges collapsing on the highway. Have they banned heavy trucks from the upper deck of the parking lot?

apparently from what I heard yesterday they found a few other stress cracks....

i don't know if they banned trucks from the upper deck, but i would think so....

they have the areas cordoned off that there are issues, and have started working on them as of yesterday.
