BBCA building has collapsed in Manchester city centre, with images showing fallen scaffolding.
The property, which is understood to be derelict, is at a demolition site near Bridge Street.
One witness told the BBC they heard an “almighty crash” as the building came down.
“We turned to look and the building was collapsing. It didn’t look planned, as there was lots of scaffolding still up and there were people in the building next door rushing to the windows to check what happened.
“We moved as soon as we saw the dust cloud coming towards us.”
The BBC has contacted emergency services for a response.
