Building Collapse Kills Man in 77-Year-Old Apartment Block
A two-story 24-unit apartment building collapsed on Friday, trapping a man between floors and killing him. Thirty-six people were injured as investigators cited a structural failure, though witnesses spoke of an explosion. Cracks in the foundation had been repaired and approved by the city last year, according to Building and Safety spokesman Bob Steinbach.
