New Orleans Fire Department spokesperson Tim McConnell said the structure of the upper building remains very unstable.

“Our biggest fear right now is the crane, it’s 270 foot,” McConnell said. “So the reach of that crane, if it were to come down has a tremendous amount of weight on it.”

At least one person is dead and several people are unaccounted for, according to Louisiana State Governor John Bel Edwards.

The city's emergency response authority urged locals to stay away from the area.

It tweeted: "This is an active scene. Please avoid the area & listen to public safety officials. "

“Now is not the time to be sightseers,” Governor Edwards added.

"You’re not going to be allowed anywhere near the site of the collapse. So please do yourself a favor, but more importantly do the first responders a favor so they can focus on the situation at hand and not have to focus on pedestrians.”
