Fire crews are on scene after part of the brick facade of condemned bar in Niles had collapsed.

Niles police dispatchers told 21 News they've received preliminary reports that part of the Grey Wolf Tavern building on Grant Street in Niles has collapsed.

When our crews got to the scene, they observed caution tape blocking off parts of the roadway and parts of the building's brick facade collapsed onto the ground.

Niles Fire Department Captain Mike Hudzik told 21 News the bar had already been condemned and plans were being made to have it torn down. Hudzik says the building itself is still standing and it was only part of the brick facade that had fallen into the street and sidewalk.

Drivers and pedestrians should avoid the area as crews work to clean up the debris.
