A woman narrowly avoided serious injury yesterday when she ran out of a shop in Fgura as the roof caved in.
The incident took place at about 1pm in Hompesch Road, Fgura, as construction works to build new storeys were being carried out above the shop, called ‘For Her’.
The roof reportedly caved in when concrete planks were placed on top of it.
The woman managed to get out of the building just in time, as debris came crashing down.
Tests are currently being carried out on the stability of the butcher shop next door.
