Bengaluru: A three-story building behind an under-construction site collapsed on Tuesday, July 28 in Majestic. The video of the incident has now gone viral.
Incident took place where the Kapali theater once stood. The theater was recently demolished to build a multiplex and construction work was going on to build a parking lot there. No casualties have been reported at the site.
As per sources, the ground had been dug to a depth of over 80 feet and the neighboring building had started to develop cracks on Monday night so the officials evacuated the area.
