On Tuesday evening at around 11:00pm, a partial section of roof at the Benjamin G. Brown K-6 School that’s located on 201 Willow Avenue in Somerville collapsed from the weight of the snow that was on its roof.
The section of the roof right above the girls bathroom caved in crashing to the floor. Power and all other utilities were shut of after the collapse.
Somerville Mayor Joseph Curtatone and Superintendent of Schools Tony Pierantozzi were on scene with police and fire personnel and declared that the Brown School will remain closed effective immediately until repairs are made.
No injuries were reported!
