A woman died after she was struck by falling bricks from a brownstone in Brooklyn on Tuesday afternoon. A large chunk of decorative brick facade above the entrance door fell from the three-story building at 5402 6th Avenue and 54th Street around 12:30 p.m. The 74-year-old victim was clearing snow from the steps at the time of the collapse. Surveillance video showed the woman on the stairs when the facade began to collapse. She was taken to Maimonides Medical Center in critical condition where she was later pronounced dead.
