0:41Mauro identifies NYPD Emergency Service Unit and FDNY specialists as responders equipped for collapse operations.
0:54Mauro outlines construction failures and explosions as possible collapse causes generally, without establishing the cause here.
2:04Mauro warns that further structural collapse and possible gas-line leaks can endanger crews searching the wreckage.

Searching the wreckage brings dangers of its own, retired NYPD inspector Paul Mauro tells Will Cain as aerial footage shows emergency crews working through debris at a collapsed Brooklyn building.

Fox News's breaking report describes a partial collapse of a three-story building, with injuries reported and people trapped. The helicopter view shows responders searching the rubble while Cain notes the extent of the damage.

Mauro's analysis focuses on how specialized crews approach that search. He identifies the NYPD's Emergency Service Unit and the FDNY as the responders equipped for this kind of operation, and warns that unstable structures and possible gas-line leaks can put rescuers at risk.

The segment adds an explanation of rescue procedures to the aerial coverage of the disaster. Mauro points to what appears to be a construction site and discusses faulty construction or renovation work, as well as boiler or gas explosions, as possible causes of building collapses generally. He does not establish what caused this one.

The upload drew roughly 922,000 views since yesterday, making it Fox News's most-watched new video over that period. Its central concern is the work unfolding beneath the helicopter: searching for people while assessing whether the surrounding wreckage is safe to enter.
