It is not yet clear what structure of the complex collapsed. Metro TV reports that it could have been a balcony roof, while an ABC correspondent says the ceiling of the lobby apparently fell onto a crowded reception area. People “heard loud thud and building shook,” the correspondent reported from the scene.
Dozens were injured when the second floor of the stock exchange building collapsed, according to Reuters, citing a witness.
“The second floor of the building has collapsed,” said Vindy, a personal assistant to the exchange’s President Director Tito Sulistio, who was in the building at the time.
Police say the incident was not caused by a bomb. In May of last year, suicide bombings at a bus station left two people dead. Four civilians and four attackers were killed in multiple suicide bombings claimed by Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS) in central Jakarta in January 2016.
