More than 20 people were injured Saturday evening in Wildwood, New Jersey, when multiple levels of decking attached to a building collapsed, trapping several victims in the rubble, officials said.
The collapse happened around 6 p.m. Saturday in Wildwood, New Jersey, at a home on Baker Avenue during the annual New Jersey Firemen's Convention. The second and third floor front decks of the multifamily condo "suffered a complete 'pancake' type collapse trapping multiple people," Wildwood Fire Department Chief Daniel Speigel said in a press release.
It was unclear how many people were on or under the decks at the time, but authorities said victims were quickly removed from the rubble. Dozens of witnesses sprung into action to help pull out anyone who was trapped under the debris, including three small children. No deaths were reported.
One patient was airlifted to a trauma center and another was transported by ground to a trauma center.
