More than 70 people were injured after a walkway at the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) building in Jakarta collapsed on Monday (Jan 15), police said. Victims trapped under the debris were carried out on stretchers and people were evacuated after the walkway at Tower 2 collapsed just after midday. Videos of people screaming and rushing out of the building went viral online. The walkway is located above the main lobby of the building and near the area where visitors are screened and checked before entering. The cause of the collapse is not yet known, but police said it was not due to an explosion. Jakarta police spokesman Argo Yuwono said 77 people were injured and being treated at four hospitals, adding there were no fatalities in the incident. He told reporters at the scene that many people working in the building would have been crossing the walkway linking Tower 2 to Tower 1 of the building when it collapsed.
