BOSTON (AP) — Officials say several floors of a downtown Boston parking garage that was under construction collapsed Saturday night, killing one person.
A second person was transported to an area hospital.
Crews told WCVB-TV that the Government Center garage came down after a crane collapsed on areas that were under construction.
Suffolk County District Attorney Kevin Hayden says the person who died was a young man, but he did not identify him.
Boston police officers, firefighters and emergency service personnel, and state police troopers all responded to assist.
