A heavy snow heap demolished a concrete slab over the door of a supermarket in Bulgaria's seaside city of Varna early on Monday, miraculously claiming no victims.
The region around the shop in Mladost neighborhood has been cordoned off while Civil Defense services are cleaning the site.
That was the second collapse of a part of a building in Varna in the last several days. On the evening of January 2, a 22-year-old woman has been buried under the debris of a collapsed visor that used to stick out over the entries of two banks' offices.
The young woman, called Gergana, was born in the town of Burgas, but was studying at a university in Varna. On the fatal day she went shopping, never to return.
Unconfirmed reports say that the collapse was caught on CCTV by the cameras at one of the banks. The last shot on the footage is said to show a girl, dressed in white.
An investigation into the case has been launched.
