A parking garage under construction in Philadelphia collapsed Wednesday, killing one person and leaving two others missing. Concerns about the building’s stability have prevented rescue workers from searching for the missing individuals until experts review the structural integrity. Construction experts said it appeared to be a “pancake collapse,” with floors collapsing onto each other into a stairwell. There is no word yet on the cause of the collapse.
