Dallas Cowboys practice facility in Valley Ranch collapses in rain, injuring 12
VALLEY RANCH — Big rains knocked down a structure at the Dallas Cowboys' practice facility on Saturday afternoon, sending 12 people to the hospital. Some are in serious condition, but nobody died.
No major players were hurt, since this was a rookie camp; in addition to some players, others injured included coaches and members of the media, which means that the DMN has at least six stories, some first-person.
Nothing else in Irving knocked down, so there's scrutiny of Summit, the company that made the structure.
Chris Silver Smith, a new B.F.F. of Pegasus News, lives out by Valley Ranch and got some photos of the calamity.
