US EditionTerrifying video shows deck collapse while family sings 'Happy Birthday' to 3-year-old
- A partially collapsed deck at the Loffredos' home in West Des Moines, Iowa, disrupted their three-year-old son's birthday party last weekend.
- The collapse occurred on a deck built in 2018 by a local contractor, which the Loffredos had recently inspected after buying the home in 2019.
- Approximately 20 family members and friends were gathered on the deck singing "Happy Birthday" when some individuals became caught in the space beneath the deck and next to the house, underneath a grill.
- Fire Marshal Mike Whitsell stated that dispatchers elevated the event to a level one mass casualty incident; although no individuals were caught inside at the time first responders arrived, several people required medical attention.
- The incident caused panic but the Loffredos ensured the birthday was not entirely ruined and Whitsell advised homeowners to stay vigilant to prevent similar accidents.
