Two young men narrowly escaped death in Teshie near Accra when the entire roof of a building under construction collapsed, trapping them just before midday on Wednesday.

The incident was attributed to strong winds preceding a heavy but brief downpour.

The construction, an additional storey to a building housing several businesses, including the ADB Bank at St Anne Catholic Church Teshie, was reportedly nearing completion.

Police and Fire Service personnel are on the scene to manage traffic.
