Toronto Fire Services say a home under renovation in Scarborough partially collapsed on Saturday morning.
Firefighters said they were called to a home on Harding Boulevard near Kingston and Birchmount roads around 11:15 a.m.
When firefighters arrived on scene, they found a home that had suffered significant structural damage.
Firefighters later determined that supports in the basement began to collapse before the first floor caved in.
A large portion of an exterior wall then also collapsed.
