Summary

A three-story residential building at Flatbush and Bedford avenues in Brooklyn collapsed on Wednesday afternoon into an adjacent construction site, killing two people and injuring 17, according to the latest figures adopted in this record. Accounts differ on some figures, and some reports describe more victims or children among them. Firefighters and rescue crews, including over 250 emergency personnel, searched the unstable rubble for people possibly still trapped, and bodies were removed from the scene. The cause of the collapse has not been determined. Witnesses and reports point to nearby excavation work as a possible factor, and investigators are examining the debris and the construction site. Eight or more households were displaced, and the city opened a reception center at the Flatbush YMCA.
