MASON CITY --- One of the main portions of the Southport Shopping Center in Mason City collapsed early Sunday morning, likely due to a combination of heavy snow and rainfall on the roof. The building, owned by Portland Investments Company out of Los Angeles, used to house Target and Hobby Lobby appears to be a total loss after the accident.
