I don't know if they edited their story.............but this turn-of-phrase has changed.....from missing to broken off

The cause of the collapse is under investigation but based on preliminary reports, Sell said construction crews noticed that some bolts that were holding a turntable down to the structure had broken off before it went into operation this morning.

Those workers are not the brightest to be making those statements to the media. Whoever noticed the problem with the bolts are nearly certainly one of the liable parties for this accident if they did not report it/do anything about it.

It was reported. They cleared the construction workers and the next step was to be clearing the street when it came down.

Just saw the Ace Hotel thread, and that brick building looks absolutely lovely. Given that this is going to be a decently tall tower, also with some brick elements, I wonder what the likelihood of this one turning out just as nice is going to be.
