A three-story building collapsed in New York, resulting in at least eight fatalities and 19 injuries, including four in critical condition. Rescue workers continue to search through the rubble. The building fell onto a nearby excavation site, trapping individuals whom firefighters are rescuing using drones, dogs, and chainsaws. The developers had received a valid permit to construct a three-story building and were seeking a permit for a nine-story building. The city has ordered a complete halt to the work. The reasons for the collapse remain unknown.
