MD Man Falls Through Floor of Collapsed House

Baltimore firefighters rescued an injured man Tuesday night after he fell through the floor of a partially collapsed vacant rowhouse, fire officials said.

Baltimore Fire personnel responded to a vacant home in the 1700 block of North Dallas Street in Oliver shortly before 8 p.m. A man suffered non-life-threatening injuries after he fell through a floor inside the already-collapsed building, spokeswoman Blair Adams said in a text message.

First responders rescued the man in less than 30 minutes and took him to a hospital, Adams said.

Firefighters and police were already leaving the scene amid falling rain by about 8:15 p.m. Tuesday.

Nearly every house on the block has received vacant building notices, according to a city database.
