Firefighters dug through the rubble of a three-story building in Brooklyn on Wednesday after it collapsed at the edge of a construction site, killing at least one person and trapping others beneath the wreckage.
Firefighters were called to the scene in the borough's Flatbush section around 4 p.m. News helicopter footage showed dozens of firefighters scouring the debris, as a group of firefighters focused on one area and appearing to use a saw to cut through the wreckage.
One person was pronounced dead, and another was critically injured and rushed to a hospital, a spokesperson for the New York Police Department said. Additional people were also transported to hospitals, but their conditions were not immediately clear. ( Video courtesy of WABC-TV, ASSOCIATED PRESS )
