Moment roof collapses at a rodeo arena due to snow

Surveillance video shows the moment the roof of the Saline County Fairgrounds rodeo arena in Benton, Arkansas collapsed under the weight of snow and sleet. The blanket of snow covering the arena was a result of a winter storm that hit swaths of the US and left several people dead and thousands without power.

No injuries were reported as a result of the roof collapse. The county and fair board will relocate scheduled events and begin planning for a new arena that will serve as a center for agricultural and rodeo youth programs.
