NEW YORK (AP) – One person died and two were injured after a building under construction in Manhattan partially collapsed early Tuesday afternoon, police said.
Authorities responded to the call about the five-story, unoccupied tenement building located at 280 West 113th Street at about 12:30 p.m. said Emily Rahimi, a spokeswoman for the fire department. Some of the building’s floors apparently gave way, officials said.
