FLATBUSH, Brooklyn (WABC) -- A partial building collapse in Flatbush, Brooklyn has left at least one person dead, and at least 10 others injured as firefighters continue efforts to search and remove anyone who may still be trapped in the rubble, according to officials.
The FDNY says it happened just after 4 p.m. after a three-story building at 1321 Flatbush Ave. collapsed into an open construction site at 2625 Bedford Ave.
In addition, a portion of the building on the corner, 1323 Flatbush Ave., also appeared to be sheared away, completely exposing apartments inside. That building is still standing.
