He said 90% of the Arrive Perimeter apartments have been searched for anyone who may be trapped.The apartment complex is in the Perimeter area of Dunwoody, just north of Atlanta. Crews were shoring up the parts of the building that are structurally unsound so they can also be searched, Carter said.
