One person remained in critical condition as of Thursday morning, the mayor said. The building collapse left a pile of rubble near the corner of Flatbush and Bedford Avenues in the Flatbush neighborhood of Brooklyn, shearing off the wall of another three-story apartment building and touching off a desperate search-and-rescue operation for survivors. Of the victims, six people were pronounced dead at the scene, including four recovered overnight, and two people died at the hospital overnight, authorities said Thursday. Officials praised the work of first responders and those caught in the initial collapse. "Construction workers who had only barely survived themselves turned back and dug victims out of the rubble," Mamdani said. "People are alive today because of their heroism yesterday." Rescue operations concluded Thursday afternoon, after authorities determined there were no more victims, the FDNY said. Report a correction or typo Copyright © 2026 ABC News Internet Ventures.
