It banged so loudly! The scaffolding at Beitou Market collapsed, a passing knight was injured, and the stall's awning was crushed.

The collapse of the Beitou Market scaffolding caused damage to surrounding store properties. The entire large yellow awning in front of the store was crushed, knocking down the stalls and carts below.

A scaffolding accident occurred during the demolition project of the Beitou Old Market in Taipei City around 10:35 this morning, affecting motorcycles parked nearby and people passing by, injuring four people. Stall vendors across from the collapse site recalled that there was a sudden loud "bang" sound, which scared them and hurried to check. People passing by on motorcycles were also affected by the collapse, and the awning in front of the store was also damaged.

A vendor who witnessed the incident said that the impact was quite loud at the time of the incident. "How could you not have heard it? It was so loud!" He said that someone was passing by the scene and was hit by a collapsed object while riding his motorcycle, and his hand was injured. Fortunately, the whole person was not pinned down, and other people also suffered injuries of varying severity.

In addition to personal injuries, surrounding stores were also affected. Witnesses from the stalls pointed out that the entire large yellow awning in front of their store was crushed and fell on the cart below. Other store facilities were also damaged. The sudden accident not only frightened people, but also caused property losses.

Another damaged stall owner said that after the accident, he hoped that relevant units would come to the scene as soon as possible to confirm the damage to the store and subsequent compensation issues.
