In the Çorlu district of Tekirdağ, a section of a two-story abandoned building collapsed due to strong winds. Pieces broken off from the building fell onto a car parked directly in front of it, damaging the vehicle. The absence of anyone in the area during the incident prevented a possible disaster. Following a report, police, medical, AFAD, and fire brigade teams were dispatched to the area, and security measures were taken against the danger of collapse in the remaining sections of the building.
Severe wind caused moments of fear in the Çorlu district of Tekirdağ. A part of the previously evacuated 2-story building collapsed, and material damage occurred when detached pieces fell onto a parked car.
SEVERE WIND CAUSED A PART OF THE 2-STORY BUILDING TO COLLAPSE
The strong wind effective in the Çorlu district of Tekirdağ led to a dangerous incident. A part of the 2-story abandoned building located on Şehit Arif Çekiççioğlu Street in Cemaliye Neighborhood collapsed. The incident occurred around 19:00. The detached house, stated to have been evacuated earlier, was partially demolished by the effect of the severe wind. Pieces of building material detached from the building fell onto the street and onto the car parked right in front of it. The absence of anyone around during the collapse prevented the incident from resulting in loss of life or injury.
FELL ONTO THE PARKED CAR
Pieces detached from the collapsing building fell onto the car with license plate 22 DT 223 parked in front. Material damage occurred to the vehicle hit by the building pieces. The car being parked and no one being around during the incident prevented heavier consequences. The sudden collapse of a part of the building also raised the possibility that other surrounding building pieces might fall. After the incident, teams began work on both the damaged car and the remaining parts of the building.
A DISASTER WAS BARELY AVOIDED
The most striking detail of the incident was that no one was around the building during the collapse. The pieces detached from the two-story structure falling directly onto the parked vehicle showed the scale of danger that could have occurred for people in the area. Thanks to no one being on the street during the collapse, there was no loss of life or injury in the incident. However, the risk in the area was not completely eliminated due to the possibility that the remaining parts of the building could also collapse. For this reason, teams increased security measures to prevent citizens from approaching the dangerous area.
AFAD, POLICE AND FIREFIGHTER TEAMS WERE DISPATCHED
Following the collapse, many teams were directed to the area upon a report. Police, medical, AFAD and firefighter teams came to the scene in Cemaliye Neighborhood and carried out the necessary checks.
