An adjoining multilevel parking garage was also severely damaged.
“We have no idea at this point whether any people were in those cars, or just in that parking garage in general,” Mr. Evans said. “We only hope that what we found up to this point is where the damage, and where the impact, stops.”
Videos and photos taken in the aftermath of the collapse showed vehicles from multiple floors crumpled together in a mess of broken concrete. They also showed that remnants of the crane had sliced through the residential area of the complex, littering a courtyard with debris.
One woman captured the moment of the collapse in a video from her apartment. The crane, which towered over its surroundings, could be seen slowly tilting before crashing.
The woman, Sophie Daigle, 22, said the storm passed through the area relatively quickly. “I was just randomly filming the wind, to show my roommates, and caught the collapse,” she said. “It was loud and scary.”
