MCCOMB — A portion of a performing arts center in Mississipp­i has collapsed.

WLBT-TV reported Sunday that parts of the roof and second story of the Jubilee Performing Arts Center in McComb collapsed.

The center's Executive Director Terrance Alexander said in a Facebook post that no one was in the building at the time of the cave-in. He says the collapse was a result of weather and time.

The Mississipp­i Department of Transporta­tion has issued an emergency alert for the area reporting all lanes are blocked due to debris. MDOT estimates the closures could last over 23 hours.

Further details have not been released.
