Tenants at an Ohio shopping mall have been told to be ready in case county officials decide to shut the place down.
Wood County Commissioner Jim Carter tells WTOL-TV that building inspectors have found Woodville Mall near Toledo has structural problems, including part of the roof caving in.
Ceilings leak and the heat is faulty at the 41-year-old shopping center.
The mall’s general manager sent a letter to tenants on Friday saying county health and building inspectors planned to look over the entire mall on Monday. WTVG-TV reports that the letter warned some 15 stores that they may be forced to vacate quickly.
