A portion of the roof of the Economy Inn in Wall Township partially collapsed Wednesday morning after sustaining damage during last week’s severe storms, authorities said.

At approximately 7:27 a.m., officers from the Wall Township Police Department, along with the South Wall Fire Department, EMS, and the Wall Township Building Department, responded to the Economy Inn at 2035 State Highway 35 after receiving reports that part of the building’s exterior façade had fallen and that additional sections appeared unstable.

Upon arrival, emergency responders discovered an active partial roof collapse caused by damage from the severe weather over the past week. While crews were assessing the structure, a second section of the roof also collapsed.

Crews from New Jersey Natural Gas and Jersey Central Power & Light responded to safely disconnect utility services to the building.

Authorities said the motel was vacant at the time of the incident, and no injuries were reported.

Police established a safety perimeter around the building and surrounding parking lot using tape, cones, and barricades to keep the public away from the unstable structure.

Township officials have notified the property owner and will continue monitoring the site to ensure the damaged building is properly secured and any hazards are addressed.
