Mumbai: A four-storeyed building collapsed in Mumbai’s Borivali area on Friday afternoon.
Eight fire engines were sent to the spot, as fire brigade personnel and other rescue teams searched the debris to look if anyone was trapped underneath.
No casualty was reported, PTI reported quoting Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) officials.
