  "summary": "A three-storey building collapsed near a construction site in the Flatbush district of Brooklyn on Wednesday. The FDNY reported receiving calls regarding people trapped following the collapse at approximately 4pm. One person was pronounced dead on arrival, four individuals were transported to the hospital in critical condition, and six others suffered minor injuries, according to Malay Mail, New Straits Times, and Free Malaysia Today.\n\nFirefighters have been digging through the rubble of the residential property, where images showed collapsed walls exposing a bedroom and wardrobe. US media reported that some people were pulled from the wreckage, including a child carried on a stretcher. While the cause of the collapse is not immediately known, some news outlets reported the building fell into a neighboring excavation site.\n\nNew York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and FDNY Commissioner Lillian Bonsignore provided an update Wednesday night as rescuers continued searching for survivors. The city’s Department of Buildings has deployed inspectors to the scene to assist with recovery operations and conduct structural stability inspections of nearby buildings.",
