Storms tear roof off Cardinals' stadium
Posted: 07/30/2010
GLENDALE, AZ - A portion of the roof at University of Phoenix Stadium was damaged by the storm that rolled through the Valley Thursday night.
A caller to ABC15 said she was on a tour of the stadium when she saw the "roof collapse."
Glendale Fire Department officials said crews were called to check the Cardinals' stadium around 4 p.m.
Spokesman Daniel Valenzuela said crews checked the roof and decided it was not a hazard.
Air15 video showed a portion of the roof torn apart with pieces of it lying on the ground nearby.
The edge of the roof appeared to be damaged in another section and there was a smaller area of damage in yet another section.
No injuries were reported, and it's unclear how long it will take to repair the damaged sections.
