Could you stop my Dollar Tree on South 9th, 66 South 9th. Took a 911 call from a customer there stating that somebody needed to come help them clear the store. Apparently the roof was caving in and thought it was unsafe, so that the employee told them that they were waiting for a call back from corporate until they did anything about it. I was just concerned about everyone's welfare in the building. 463-1. 463-1.44.
