Extra Time: Everything we know about the Lower Manhattan parking garage collapse
LOWER MANHATTAN, Manhattan (WABC) -- In this edition of 'Eyewitness News Extra Time,' we continue our coverage of the deadly parking garage collapse in Lower Manhattan.
It's been nearly 24 hours since the initial calls for help, but the entire site remained unstable and unsafe to enter on Wednesday night.
Heavy machinery is being used to slowly remove cars and clear debris. The big concern is for another collapse and for hazardous materials leading to fires or explosions. The clean up at the site could take weeks.
Authorities say the parking garage manager was killed, his body found by the FDNY's robotic dog. Seven other people were treated for injuries related to the collapse.
On Wednesday, the Manhattan district attorney's office confirmed that it was now investigating the incident.
Our team of reporters covered all the angles including what we know about the victim, the building code violations against the parking garage, and the technology used to get a look inside the rubble.
