Two Bulgarian tourists have sustained life-threatening injuries in a partial building collapse in the French capital Paris.
The incident was reported by the French "Le Parisien."
According to the publications, a concrete block became detached Friday evening from an apartment building in the Boulogne-Billancourt suburb of Paris, injuring gravely two Bulgarian men, a father, 77, and son, 26.
The concrete block, weighting about one metric ton, fell on them at 11:15 pm on the sidewalk of "G?n?ral-Leclerc" avenue, just meters away from the Marcel-Sembat metro station.
The two are in critical condition. The father was listed at the Georges-Pompidou hospital, while the son, who suffered multiple fractions, is at the Piti?-Salp?tri?re one.
