>> reporter: yeah. good evening, norah. city authorities are struggling to figure out when and how to demolish this building. despite the destruction you see behind me and multiple complaints, the building had passed several inspections. the city's chief building official signed off on at least one of those inspections and resigned yesterday. tonight the six-story building remains cordoned off from the public with three individuals presumed inside. >> this needs to be done in a way that it respects that this is a resting place. >> reporter: documents released last night by the city include notices of violations, engineering reports, and years of complaints from residents of cracks in the walls and ceilings. repairs on the century-old building's brick exterior began months ago. then just days before the collapse, an engineer hired by the building's owner reported that portions of the brick facade appear ready to fall imminently. >> a professional engineer in

february stated the building was not in imminent collapse. the same engineer reviewed the repair that needed to be done in may and did not come to the conclusion that that building had to be evacuated. >> reporter: ryan shaffer says the building owner approached his masonry company for a bid in february but ultimately hired another company that was cheaper. shaffer took these photos just two days before the collapse and evenneerer >> when did you think that >> you could just hear noises, and you could see debris falling. and there's a guy working, and i said, "if you value your life, get away from that building." then an hour later, i heard that the building fell. >> reporter: outside the devastated building, brandon colvin jr. has been waiting for days for news of his missing father. >> i've been trying my hardest not to think about it so i don't break down and cry. i've been trying to, like, push it to the back of my head and just think about nothing. >> reporter: the red cross has opened a shelter for people who have been forced from their apartments, and the city says it's offering $6,000 in aid to

now to a scary incident for president biden. white house officials say the president is uninjured after taking a fall at the air force academy commencement in colorado today. cbs's ed o'keefe has reaction from the campaign trail while cbs's nancy cordes joins us from the white house with more details. so, nancy, good evening. what happened? >> reporter: good evening, norah. the president was onstage at the graduation, walking back to his ft about 900 members of the air force academy class of 2023. that's when he stumbled and went down, landing on his right hip. you can see there an air force officer, a couple of members of his secret service detail rushing to help him back up to his feet, and then he pointed at something that had caused him to trip. a short time later, his communications director said he's fine.

there was a sandbag onstage while he was shaking hands. this is not the first time that mr. biden has tripped in the public eye. his doctor says the 80-year-old president has a stiffened gait from arthritis exacerbated by a recent foot fracture though almost every recent president has taken a tumble in public at some point. one of the downsides, norah, of being followed by cameras everywhere they go. >> nancy cordes, thank you. and that fall has already become a talking point for republicans running for the white house. cbs's ed o'keefe is in iowa, where former president donald trump is hitting the campaign trail. >> well, i hope he wasn't hurt. i hope he wasn't hurt. >> reporter: former president donald trump expressed concern when told of his successor's fall and referenced his own experience after a commencement. >> you got to be careful about that because you don't -- you don't want that, even if you have to tiptoe down a ramp. >> reporter: but he couldn't resist taking a shot at his once and possibly future opponent.

>> that's a bad place to fall when you're making -- i think it was the air force academy, right? that's not inspiring. >> reporter: trump's comments came as he and his top gop primary rival, florida governor ron desantis, each campaigned in early voting states, taking swings at each other throughout the day. >> ron -- as i call him ron desanctimonious for a reason. >> reporter: the former president hammered desantis for touting his ability to serve two terms. >> we will work incredibly hard day after day for two terms over an eight-year period to deliver results. >> i've been watching desanctimonious go out and say, "i've got eight years. it's going to be eight years." let me tell you something. right there you should vote against him. it will take me six months to have it totally the way it was. >> reporter: desantis responded later during his four-stop tour of new hampshire with wife casey. >> why didn't he do it his first four years? >> reporter: the florida governor didn't explicitly attack the former president during his formal remarks, instead criticizing president biden for pushing the democratic

party to drop new hampshire as its first primary. >> i think what he's been doing with the democrats is wrong, and i'm glad the republicans are holding the line and are committed to new hampshire. >> reporter: but on his second full day of campaigning, desantis got noticeably irritated during this exchange with a reporter. >> governor, how come you're not taking questions from voters? >> what are you talking about? i'm out here talking to people. are you blind? >> what? >> are you blind? >> i'm not blind. >> so people are coming up to me, talking to me whatever they want to talk to me about. >> reporter: desantis hasn't taken questions from voters during his formal remarks, but offstage he's interacting with them, shaking hands, posing for selfies, holding babies, exactly the kind of retail politics that voters in iowa and new hampshire expect of anyone running for president. norah. >> interesting to watch. ed o'keefe, thank you so much. now to some breaking news here in washington. the senate tonight just voted to pass the bipartisan deal to raise the debt limit. the bill will now head to the president's desk for signature. the legislation allows the u.s. government to spend more money
