TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — A gas station roof collapsed Thursday evening following severe weather in Central Florida.
The outside awning of the 7-Eleven, located at Howell Branch and State Road 436 in Casselberry, just north of Downtown Orlando, collapsed at around 7:34 p.m., according to the Seminole County Fire Department.
Photos show the aftermath of the storm damage, as nearly the entire structure is destroyed.
Officials said one vehicle was impacted with people inside, but thankfully no one was injured.
All gas station pumps at that location were immediately shut off.
On Thursday evening, the National Weather Service issued several special weather statements and severe thunderstorm warnings for parts of Central Florida, warning residents of potential nickel- and quarter-sized hail and high winds.
