Scaffolding around a row of terraced houses due for demolition in north Staffordshire has collapsed.
The scaffolding was in place in Wellington Road in the Hanley area of Stoke-on-Trent.
A spokesman for West Midlands Ambulance Service said they were called to the street at 1030 BST.
He added: “Although there were workmen there, no-one was hurt; a very lucky escape indeed given the size of the structure that had fallen.”
Fire crews also attended the scene.
