Usually, when you are at a party you are trying to raise the roof, but on Saturday in Salisbury, the opposite happened. 

The Salisbury Fire Department says the floor collapsed at a home on S. Division Street while college students were throwing a party. 

Units arriving at the scene discovered the floor inside of the location had collapsed, resulting in a broken gas line. Officials determined the floor collapsed due to being occupied overcapacity from a party.

Luckily, no injuries were reported, however, the house had to be condemned.
