On November 12, 2026, a three-story building at 1321 Flatbush Avenue in Brooklyn, New York City collapsed around 4:00 p.m. local time. The collapse resulted in eight deaths, including two children aged 9 and 10, and injured 18 people, among them four firefighters. Rescue operations by the FDNY concluded on Thursday evening with no additional victims found, and the site was handed over to the Department of Buildings and NYPD for investigation. The building, constructed in the 1930s, was undermined by ongoing excavation work at an adjacent site. Among the survivors was the Velez family: Anderson Velez, his wife, and their two sons; the 9-year-old son underwent skull surgery and remains in intensive care, while his wife sustained serious injuries. All eight victims have been identified. ]]> Fri 13 Nov 2026 11:35:05 +0200 https://theync.com/video/15085/brooklyn-flatbush-building-collapse-kills-eight-people-including-two-children/
