Parts of Calgary’s downtown streets were closed Thursday after a piece of metal hung precariously 28 storeys above vehicles and pedestrians.
The Calgary Fire Department got a call at around 10:30 a.m. about a piece of metal flashing that was hanging off the roof of the Ampersand building at 112 4 Street S.W.
CFD public information officer Carol Henke told Global News nothing has fallen and there are no injuries. Henke said high winds in the morning likely loosened the piece of metal, which measures one by three metres.
