  "summary": "A building collapse in central Sydney, Australia, has left seven people injured, with two hospitalized in a serious condition. The incident occurred at Ultimo, near a service station, just before 11am on Monday.\n\nThe collapsed building was a construction site, with a wall and roof having fallen onto nearby cars. A man in his 60s and a man in his 30s were removed from the rubble and taken to hospital, one to St Vincent's Hospital Sydney and the other to Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, according to ABC News AU.\n\nThe building had previously been a rehearsal studio and was approved for demolition to make way for a multi-storey mixed-use development, managed by Macroview Projects. Surrounding buildings, including the service station, were evacuated as a precaution, and firefighters are assessing the site for further structural collapse.",
