The collapse of a parking garage in lower Manhattan, New York, caused several injuries on Tuesday, local emergency officials and media reported, adding that some victims may have been trapped in the fallen structure.

The second floor of the garage collapsed onto the first, CBS News reported, citing emergency officials in New York.

Video footage from the scene cited by CBS News showed a rescue operation underway.

However, firefighters responding to the collapse were pulled from the immediate scene “out of concern for the structural stability of the building,” the New York Fire Department said in a statement.

Meanwhile, emergency responders were doing their best to answer anyone who might have been trapped, the department said.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams was notified of the collapse and was heading to the scene to survey the damage, his spokesman said on Twitter.
