Emergency workers respond to a partial-building collapse on the west side of Manhattan
Emergency workers responded to a partial-building collapse on the west side of Manhattan Wednesday.
A spokesman for the FDNY told Yahoo News that the three-story building, located on West 57th Street between 11th and 12th Avenues, was under construction.
One construction worker was transported to the hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries, the spokesman said, as first responders continued to look for any other victims and assess the site.
Aerial photos of the scene showed scaffolding collapsed onto a school bus parked outside the structure.
It's unclear what caused the collapse. The NYPD spokesman said the department is investigating. (Yahoo News)
