A worker suffered a superficial injury this morning when a building collapsed in Birkirkara, close to the Yorkie garments shop.

The man, who suffered a leg injury, was with several workers carrying out works on the old structure when it gave way and became a pile of rubble at about 10.45.

Rescuers from the Civil Protection Department were deployed to assist in a recovery operation.
