About a dozen people injured in hangar collapse at Boise airport, officials say

A hangar under construction on the grounds of the airport in Boise, Idaho, collapsed Wednesday, injuring about a dozen people, officials said.

Authorities responded at about 5 p.m., local time, to a private business located at the Boise Airport for a steel framed hangar that collapsed, Boise Fire Department Operations Chief Aaron Hummel said during a news briefing.

Everyone who had been at the site had been accounted for as of Wednesday evening, he said. Hummel wouldn't comment on the condition of those injured or say whether anyone had died. He said officials were first working to contact family members.
