Fire officials have responded to a church in Hagerstown after a partial collapse on Tuesday.
Fire officials reported the partial collapse at the Hagerstown First Church of God on Rose Hill Avenue shortly before 3 p.m.
A witness told FOX 5 that the construction of the new addition to the church is what collapsed, days after roof trusses were installed.
Hagerstown Police said that crews are working to extract at least one person.
It's unclear what led to the collapse, or if there are other people injured.
