Several people were injured after a dilapidated shed of a building collapsed on September 3 (Tuesday) in Bihar's Saran district.

According to the police, the incident happened when people were standing on the shed and watching dance performances during the Mahavir Akhara procession in the Ishauvpur block of the district.

After the incident, the injured people were rushed to a government-run hospital in the district, where they were receiving treatment.

A video of the incident showed the people coming down suddenly as the dilapidated shed collapsed.
