VIDEO: Crews were out in Mount Prospect Monday surveying severe storm damage at an apartment complex. Storms from over the weekend sheared off part of the roof of the building on Huntington Commons Road.
“It started as a fast-moving storm, where it got really dark really quick,” Mount Prospect resident Mathew Geevarghese said. “There were a couple of kids who were asleep and were woken; it sounded like a train, or something was ripping through.” Crews have their work cut out for them, after strong storms swept through Saturday. Luckily, no one was injured. The 75-unit apartment building has been deemed uninhabitable for the over 200 who live there. The parking lot and a nearby field were also littered with debris. Some of it fell and smashed the windshields of several vehicles.
