Reports did the rounds yesterday about a building collapsing at Sandton City Mall and, although they were not untrue, it seems they were grossly exaggerated.

Whilst some described the collapse as ‘chaotic’ and others claimed a bridge had collapsed, the story seems far less dramatic. eNCA reports:

…a small piece of ceiling collapsed on a shopper, injuring her ankle.

ER24 spokesperson Russel Meiring the woman was treated at the mall and taken to Medi-Clinic in Sandton for further treatment.

“Sandton Mall is doing renovations and a part of the ceiling inside the mall fell on the woman. She was not badly injured,” said Meiring.

Dramatic pause…your picture:

Here’s what the Sandton City Twitter account had to say about the incident:

 

Riveting stuff. Don’t worry Johannesburg you have overcome such horrors in the past, I have faith you will bounce back.
