At least two people have died, while others have been trapped in the rubble after a three-storey building collapsed in Brooklyn, New York, at the edge of a construction site on Wednesday afternoon. Some 250 firefighters and police officers tackled the rubble with pickaxes and saws to pull people covered in dust from beneath piles of twisted wood and brick. During a press conference, officials said that at least 17 people had been hospitalised, four in critical condition. While it is unclear whether people might still be trapped, New York City Fire Department officials stated that search and rescue operations would continue into the night.
