Late Wednesday night, St. Petersburg Fire Rescue responded to two significant incidents in downtown St. Petersburg: a crane collapse at the 400 Central building construction site and roof damage at Tropicana Field. Fortunately, no injuries have been reported from either incident.

The public is advised to remain sheltered and avoid both locations until further notice to ensure safety and allow emergency operations to proceed without hindrance.

Authorities urge residents to "avoid the areas surrounding 400 Central Avenue and Tropicana Field" for public safety reasons. They also recommend monitoring official updates through the City of St. Petersburg's channels for current information.

In case of witnessing additional damage or people needing help, individuals are encouraged to "call 911 immediately."

First responders plan to conduct damage assessments at both sites when conditions permit. Further updates will be provided as more details become available.
