A 14-year-old boy working as a labourer died while a four-year-old boy sustained critical injuries when the roof of a toilet in an old and vacant building here collapsed Thursday, police said.

The incident was reported around 8 a.m. from west Delhi's Nihal Vihar area.

The 14-year-old Deepak died while Rahul sustained critical injuries when the roof of a toilet in the 40-year-old two-storey building collapsed, said a police official.

"As the building was vacant, people would use its toilet. The boys were present in the building when the roof collapsed," said the official.
