ROOF OF HISTORIC COLLEGE STATION NIGHT SPOT COLLAPSES

  

The roof of a historic night spot adjacent to Texas A&M collapsed during heavy rainfall, Wednesday night.

Firefighters were called out to The Dixie Chicken at Northgate in College Station, just before 9:00 p.m.

Officials say there were several customers inside when the roof gave way, but no one was injured.

The College Station Fire Department used a ladder truck to extend over the roof to inspect the building.  Crews worked for several hours on stabilizing the structure until more inspections could take place.

Officials at Texas A&M tweeted, Wednesday night: "Thinking of our neighbors at @thedixiechicken tonight. We know this won't be the last time we hear 'Goodnight Irene.'
