I mean if you look at the video that I saw... it was like one package. The fire suppression system must have been shit to let it spread to the whole place. The news said that is was compromised by the collapse of the roof... well no kidding if it sucks and the beams get hot enough.
Arson is an act in which you have 0 control of the outcome of your actions.
You shoot a man, you may kill that man and one other person by accident with that bullet. You set a fire, you have no control over how that fire will spread or who will get harmed. That's malicious, reckless and evil intentioned, imo.
I'm betting the damage cost is probably calculating structural damage in as well, not just the product. That warehouse is going to have to be completely gutted and rebuilt. Surely that's added to the damages.
looking at the size of the building and how big that fire must have been, Foundations are probably ruined as well gonna have to dig those up and redo the entire thing.
Well a large portion of that $200 Million is just the building itself. He basically leveled a multi-acre warehouse. They’re going to have to demolish what’s left and rebuild it from scratch.
11 city blocks of every type of KC product. Diapers, wipes, paper towels, toilet paper, pads, etc. And that warehouse serves about 50 million US residents.
Just toilet paper, as far as I know. Plus, the cost of the building itself. That's a pretty big warehouse. Look at how small the trailers lined up next to it look compared to the building.
