Part of Light House collapses

Staff Reporter

HYDERABAD: Incessant rain brought down a part of Light House, one of city's oldest movie theatres, at Gunfoundry late on Friday night. No one was in the building when the portion came crumbling down. The theatre was closed down a few years ago and a function hall was located here. The right flank of the decades-old building located on the main Gunfoundry road came down due to the rain and efforts were on to remove the debris on Saturday morning. The traffic on the busy main thoroughfare was slowed down a bit as the road was partially blocked for clearing the site.
