As reported on News Center 7 at 11:00, this was the third building to collapse in Dayton in the last two weeks.

Fire crews shoveled the brick that fell from the building into a pile in front of the building.
City records show the building was constructed in 1910.

Valley Street will be closed until the city inspector is finished evaluating the structure.
The city has not yet determined if the collapse was caused by weather or age.
