That's awful. Are they redoing the building or just trashing the siren?

OH MY GOD! :o :(

Poor siren. It's been warning people for how many years now? And it gets treated like a rock.

Imagine trying to explain that to the insurance adjuster.

Do have any shots of it after it fell?

Why would you do that to siren, and the roof of the building. :shock:

This is just so WRONG!! Poor siren, may it rest in peace or pieces. :roll: Personally, I hope it went through the roof and into someone's office. How sad.

If it bounces/slides off the roof, think of the danger to anyone below! :shock:
