YOUNGSTOWN — A large section of bricks fell off a building on the corner of West Rayen Avenue and North Phelps Street on the Youngstown State University campus.

No one was injured when the bricks fell about five stories to the pavement Wednesday afternoon. The building is owned by AT&T and is partly used by YSU.

It isn’t known what caused the bricks to fall off the building, said Charles Shasho, the city’s deputy director of public works.

There are still some loose bricks on the building, Shasho said.

West Rayen Avenue between North Phelps and Hazel streets is closed until the fire chief determines the building is safe, Shasho said.
