Pune, Jul 21 (PTI) Eight persons including four children were injured after a two-storey residential building collapsed in Mundhwa area here around noon today, police said.

A one-year-old girl was among the injured.

Building owner Kailash Bhandwalkar, three members of his family and four others from two tenant families were injured, police said.

The building, standing by a nullah in Keshavnagar locality, was around 30 years old and in a precarious condition, a police officer said.

Incessant rains may have weakened it further, he added.

Fire brigade personnel rescued all those who were trapped under the debris, including a one-year-old girl from Bhandwalkar's family.

Two buffaloes tied outside the house died as debris fell on them, police said.
