Children draw on the ground with chalk at the scene where an apartment building partially collapsed on Sunday afternoon, Tuesday, May 30, in Davenport, Iowa. A structural engineer report issued just days before the building partially collapsed indicated a wall of the century-old structure was in imminent risk of crumbling. But neither the owner nor city officials warned residents of the danger days before the building partially collapsed.
