2 Construction Workers Rescued Upon Building Site Collapse in Brooklyn

 On July 30, 2021, around 2PM in Prospect Lefferts Gardens, Brooklyn, a construction site accident left two construction workers buried under the debris. During the building demolition, a portion of a wall and ceiling collapsed on the two workers causing them to become trapped in between the rubble. 

Rescuers arrived at the scene and were able to safely retrieve the victims from the collapsed site. The two workers were then rushed to the local hospital to be treated for severe injuries.
