本周早些时候，布鲁克林一处公寓内拍摄的新公布视频记录了大楼倒塌的惊人瞬间，事故造成八人死亡，近二十人受伤。
Newly released video from inside a Brooklyn apartment captures the terrifying moment the building collapsed earlier this week, killing eight people and injuring nearly 20 others.
周三，位于弗拉特布什的这栋三层建筑坍塌，引发大规模紧急救援行动。
The three-story structure in Flatbush caved in on Wednesday, prompting a massive emergency response.
这段视频拍摄于居民安德森·瓦莱斯三楼单元内，画面显示，就在客厅一面墙垮塌的同时，公寓开始支离破碎。
Recorded inside the third-floor unit of resident Anderson Velez, video shows the apartment beginning to give way just as a living room wall crumbles.
据哥谭主义者网站报道，画面中，瓦莱斯9岁的儿子正拿着奶瓶，从冰箱里取出一加仑装的牛奶，而一个2岁的孩子在附近玩耍。片刻之后，瓦莱斯的妻子冲进门口尖叫，男孩朝母亲跑去，墙壁在他们周围崩塌。
According to Gothamist, Velez’s 9-year-old son can be seen holding a baby bottle and pulling a gallon of milk from the refrigerator while a 2-year-old plays nearby. Moments later, Velez's wife bursts through a doorway screaming, and the boy runs toward his mother as the walls break apart around them.
“我仍然震惊不已，”瓦莱斯告诉该新闻媒体。“说实话，我正努力在儿子面前表现得坚强，但我感觉很糟糕。”救援人员在废墟中搜寻数小时，才确认八人死亡。
"I am still in shock," Velez told the news outlet. "The truth is, I’m trying to be strong for my son, but I feel terrible." Rescue crews spent hours sifting through the rubble before confirming the eight fatalities.
“我为八名纽约人失去生命而感到心碎，至少17人受伤，其中包括三名消防员，”纽约市市长佐兰·马姆达尼在社交媒体上写道。“对于如此惨重的损失，无言以表，”他补充道。“我的心与失去亲人的人、受伤者以及今天正在哀悼的每个人同在。”与此同时，邻近房产的所有人因过去的建筑违规行为受到审查——包括一名承包商在三月份无视城市停工令的决定，福克斯新闻数字版此前报道过。
"I am heartbroken that eight New Yorkers have now lost their lives and at least 17 have been injured, including three firefighters," New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani wrote on WORKERS WARNED OHIO TRENCH WAS TOO DEEP BUT WERE TOLD TO ENTER MINUTES BEFORE FATAL CAVE-IN: REPORT "There are no words for a loss of this magnitude," he added. "My heart is with the families and loved ones of those we have lost, those who are injured and everyone grieving today." Meanwhile, the owner of the neighboring property is facing scrutiny over past construction violations — including a contractor’s decision to ignore a city stop-work order in March, Fox News Digital previously reported.
纽约市建筑局专员艾哈迈德·蒂加尼确认，倒塌发生时，邻近的贝德福德大道工地正在进行挖掘作业。
New York City Buildings Commissioner Ahmed Tigani confirmed that excavation was underway at the adjacent Bedford Avenue site at the time of the collapse.
“他们在该工地进行的工作类型是挖掘工作。所以，他们今天正在做的就是这个，”蒂加尼说。
"The type of work they were conducting was excavation work on that job site. And so, that was what they were working on today," Tigani said.
“他们获批的计划是建一栋三层建筑，但他们目前的计划是建一栋九层建筑，该计划尚未获批，”蒂加尼补充说。“目前，我们在施工现场的那一区域只有挖掘工作。”
"They have a plan approved for a three-story building, but they have current plans looking for a nine-story building, which has not yet been approved for," Tigani added. "At this point, all we have at this time is excavation work in that section of the construction site.
