A man has died after the roof of a house collapsed in Bradford.
Emergency services were called to reports of a roof collapse at a property in the Yorkshire town in the early hours of Sunday (August 23).
Police and fire officers discovered two people had been seriously injured after debris fell into their bedroom.
A 47-year-old man died of his injuries and a 28-year-old woman was taken to hospital where she is still being treated.
A family from inside the next door property were unharmed and taken out of the house.
Police say they will be rehoused.
An investigation into how the collapse has happened has been launched.
Detective Inspector Claudine Binns of Bradford District CID, West Yorkshire Police, said: “This has clearly been a tragic incident in which a man has lost his life and a woman has received some serious injuries.
“Work is ongoing to make the building safe and we are in the early stages of a full investigation with the local authority to determine exactly how this fatal incident took place.
"A full file will be prepared for the coroner."
