Authorities say it appears no one was injured when a small section of a four-story parking deck in Charlotte, N.C., collapsed.

Fire Capt. Rob Brisley says firefighters are still searching the rubble under a collapsed section that was about the size of a basketball court. It collapsed Tuesday morning about 8:30 a.m.

Brisley says few, if any, cars were damaged.

It's the second time in six months a parking deck in Charlotte collapsed. A woman was killed in December when her car crashed into a support wall at a parking deck nearby.

In that case, a small part of the three-tier deck collapsed and the driver fell through the opening.
