<p>A massive fire broke out in Mumbai's&nbsp;Patel Chambers during the wee hours on Saturday which led to a part of the building to collapse. Around 18 fire engines were rushed to the sport immediately, two men were injured in the process.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The level-4 fire has now been brought under control, the fire department said.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"Two firefighters had minor injuries, rest everybody is safe. We deployed 16 fire engines, 11 tankers and 150 fire officers. The situation is under control," fire officer Prabhat Rahangdale told media here.</p>

<p>As per the fire department chief, the building had been vacant for years.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"This building has been vacant for around four years. It seems like a very old building. The staircase inside had collapsed long ago, so there was no way for us to go inside. It is a very congested area, so chances were that the fire could spread to neighbouring buildings as well. We are investigating the cause of the fire," Prabhat added.</p>
