“I could see the wall coming down but I just stepped back. If it had been two seconds later it would have hit me.”

Another eye witness, who was getting his haircut in Old Town Barber Shop at the time, said he heard a ‘loud bang’.

Traffic is moving slower than usual and a volunteer ambulance worker got out of her car to instruct vehicles around the incident.

Local business owners initially called for the ambulance service.
