Building Under Renovation Collapses In Washington, D.C.

One person was injured in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday after a building collapsed without warning just seconds after two passerby cleared the immediate area.

The incident occurred just before 1:30 p.m. at Florida Ave. and Staples St. NE in a building that was under renovation, D.C. Fire and EMS wrote on Twitter.

The partial collapse was captured on video by a security camera across the street, which showed two people walk by and make it halfway through a crosswalk before bricks began to fall and crumble. A fire truck approached the scene mere seconds later.

Vito Maggiolo, a spokesman for the D.C. Fire and Emergency Services Medical Department, tells PEOPLE that an adult female ⁠— one of the two people seen in the video ⁠—⁠ suffered a minor injury, and was transported to the hospital.
