Soo Mill's roof truss manufacturing plant on Sackville Road is closed after one of its buildings was heavily damaged.

A custom truss manufacturer on Sackville Road remains closed after sustaining heavy damage as the result of an unknown incident. 

News tips suggest the roof of a building at Soo Mill's roof truss manufacturing plant collapsed sometime on Sunday.

A Soo Mill employee informed SooToday on Wednesday that the truss plant is currently closed. 

SooToday has reached out to management at Soo Mill for additional details. 

The incident comes just days after Ontario's labour ministry launched an investigation into the partial collapse of a canopy on Algoma Steel property that happened on Dec. 10.

At the time, the Sault steelmaker said the collapse was likely due to excessive snow accumulation.
