Truck Stuck In Walmart Parking Deck, Damaged Concrete Pillars

ATLANTA, GA – Crews will be on hand Monday to repair the parking deck of a Buckhead big box store that was severely damaged by a badly parked box truck on Friday, authorities said.

Atlanta Fire and Rescue Department tweeted that the cargo vehicle “possibly compromised a multi-level parking deck after damaging three concrete pillars,” at the Walmart on Howell Mill Road.

All the other vehicles parked in the section of the parking deck near the truck were removed, but the truck was left wedged in place because it was supporting the structure, Fox 5 Atlanta reports.

An engineer told the news station that a crew will come in to replace the damaged beams and remove the truck, estimating the damage to be about $1.5 million.

The incident remains under investigation.
