The Fire Department of New York says five people were injured in the collapse at the five-story building in Brooklyn Tuesday. One person is in critical condition. Two are in serious condition.
Images from a helicopter over the scene in Brighton Beach showed rescuers scrambling to claw their way through a pile of rubble where the building had mostly crumbled to the ground. One trapped worker was pulled onto a stretcher and lowered to the ground.
