Tampa St. Petersburg, FL, July 26, 2026 —

A roof at the Aviata at Bradenton Villas assisted living facility in Bradenton, Florida, collapsed on Saturday evening. The incident occurred in the facility’s dining hall.

Approximately 157 residents were evacuated from the premises following the collapse. Officials confirmed that no injuries were reported as a result of the structural failure.

The dining hall had been closed prior to the roof collapse due to an ongoing water leak. This closure is believed to have contributed to the absence of any reported injuries.

Further details regarding the cause of the water leak or the extent of the damage to the facility were not immediately available.
