Residents Narrowly Escape Building Collapse In Germantown
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- City workers are on the scene of a building collapse in the Germantown section of Philadelphia.
Chopper three was over the rubble along the 4600 block of Germantown Avenue.
Work was being done on the row-home next door when the adjoining house came crumbling down. A woman who was inside at the time of the collapse described what it was like.
"It just came down, you just seen a whole bunch of smoke and dust and like 9/11 it just got real dark," said Denise Wheeler. "I can see debris falling on the car and I heard my daughter screaming."
Miraculously no one was hurt. The Red Cross will be assisting the family who lived there.
