A 4ft x 4ft section of ceiling collapsed on a 56-year old man inside a Cabbagetown townhouse. The man was hit by drywall &insulation. The man's daughter called for help. The man was checked over by EMS & doesn't look to be badly hurt. Toronto Fire Captain Mike Strapko says the roof of the place on Prospect St near Wellesley St & E & Parliament St had been leaking for awhile. He says the fluctuating temperatures the city has seen lately could've had something to do with it.

Dave Bolender posted on 01/03/2013 04:21 PM It must be a 'slow-news' day in Toronto, when this kind of incident is reported. Every winter I am involved with 2 - 5 such cases, as people think they can neglect routine maintenance of their roofs and attics. It's too bad this man was (slightly) injured, but this was a self-inflicted situation. There will likely be an insurance claim, when it should be refused; no wonder we pay high insurance premiums. A few years ago, I was called to a house in Mississauga, where a 5' x 7' section of the kitchen ceiling had fallen - the result of poor attic conditions causing excessive condensation (water), to the point the drywall ceiling bowed and then gave way. LET IT RAIN is equipped to address these issues.
