ALBION – The Albion Fire Department gets an aerial view of a building along East Bank Street. A large section of the roof collapsed this morning. These photos were taken at 10:45 a.m.

No one was hurt when the roof caved in onto the third floor, but tenants on the second floor were evacuated and sent to a hotel in Brockport.

The Albion Fire Department, Orleans County Emergency Management Agency, Albion code enforcement and other specialists are assessing the building for structural integrity.

The building is owned by Frank Corso and includes several storefronts and apartments.

Traffic is currently blocked off on East Bank Street between Main and Platt streets.
