The three-story building reportedly collapsed onto a construction site next door, where excavation work was underway. A store and at least one apartment were reportedly in the building.

Firefighters are now working to find people who may be trapped under the rubble.

One of the injured is a child, according to CNN.

CNN reports that a demolition company was fined earlier this year for continuing to work at the site despite an order to pause.
