Two unusual incidents occurred Thursday evening in Bnei Brak, both ending without injuries b’chasdei Shamayim. A partially renovated residential building collapsed, prompting an emergency response, while in a separate incident, a private vehicle rolled out of a parking area and fell onto the roadway below.

Rescue and firefighting crews from the Bnei Brak station were dispatched to Rav Levi Yitzchak of Berditchev Street after receiving reports that part of a building had collapsed. Authorities said a section of the first floor of a three-story building that was undergoing renovations gave way.

Firefighters immediately began extensive searches to ensure that no one had been trapped beneath the debris. At the same time, crews secured the scene and took steps to prevent additional hazards to nearby residents and pedestrians.

Following an inspection, the city’s chief engineer declared the structure unsafe for occupancy.

Later that evening, emergency responders were called to another incident on Abarbanel Street in the Kiryat Herzog neighborhood after a private vehicle apparently rolled out of a parking space and plunged onto the street below, reportedly after the driver lost control.

The father and daughter who were inside the vehicle at the time escaped unharmed, and no injuries were reported in the incident.
