MARQUETTE -- Some frightening moments for those near the Wild Rover in Marquette Wednesday afternoon.  Around 2:30 p.m., part of the exterior brick wall of the building fell apart.
    
Witnesses say the loud rumble was followed by a massive cloud of dust that momentarily spilled into Washington Street.  A police officer and a fire official were on scene to survey the damage.
    
No word on what caused the bricks to fall.  The restaurant portion of the restaurant was closed Wednesday night but was scheduled to reopen Thursday morning.  The bar remained open.
