VIDEO/PHOTOS: Strong winds caused major damage to the roof of the Rolladium Family Fun Center in Waterford Township Tuesday afternoon. Part of the roof material ripped off the building located near Highland Road and Pontiac Lake Road in Waterford Township. No one was injured, according to fire officials. The damage came as a line of severe storms moved through metro Detroit on Tuesday afternoon with damaging winds. In some cases, the winds reached between 60 and 70 mph, according to the 7 First Alert weather team.
Trees and power lines were down across the area, Waterford Fire Chief Matthew Nye said. Nye said he found out about the incident around 2 p.m. from his deputy chief who was sent a video from social media. “I thought it was interesting that a 911 call didn’t come in, so I sent our team of investigators out to check it out. They did find in the pouring rain the roof was actively ripping off or it was in the process or it did completely rip off,” Nye said.
