Roselle Park police are asking the public to avoid the area around East Westfield Avenue near Berwyn Street following a partial building collapse.

The incident happened on Thursday around noon. Police say the vacant building was under construction at the time.

Photos from the scene appear to show that a wall fell down.

Officials say that a crew will demolish what is left of the building to prevent any further collapse.

The Roselle Park police and fire departments, along with PSE&G, were on the scene to make sure the area remained safe.
