<p>A mezzanine floor inside the Indonesian Stock Exchange tower in Jakarta, collapsed on Monday, injuring nearly 80 people and forcing a chaotic evacuation.<br />
Security camera footage circulated online showed the collapse, with a group of people plunging several meters (yards) to the floor as the structure gives way beneath them.<br />
People fled the building through a lobby strewn with debris. Emergency personnel tended to the injured on the grass and pavement outside the tower.<br />
National police spokesman Setyo Wasisto said most of the injured were college students from Palembang in Sumatra who were visiting the stock exchange as part of a study tour.<br />
Wasisto ruled out terrorism as a cause of the collapse.<br />
“There is no bomb element in the incident,” he said.<br />
Figures released by five hospitals showed 77 people were injured.<br />
A spokeswoman for Jakarta’s Siloam Hospital said it had received more than two dozen victims.</p>

<p>A college student from Palembang said she felt a tremor just before the floor collapsed.<br />
“The structure suddenly collapsed, causing chaos,” the student, identified said.<br />
She said some of her friends were hit by debris and suffered head injuries and broken bones.<br />
The stock exchange remained open for its afternoon trading session and its general manager, Tito Sulistio, asserted no one had been killed.<br />
“I guarantee that there were no fatalities,” he said. “I helped evacuate the victims to the park and as far as I know, the worst injuries are fractures.”<br />
He said the exchange will pay the students’ medical costs.</p>
