HIGHLAND PARK, Mich. [[WXYZ) - Bricks falling from a building have forced the closure of a section of Woodward Avenue in Highland Park.

At the moment, only the two southbound lanes are closed on Woodward near Tuxedo, but the Michigan Department of Transportation says both the northbound and southbound lanes may have to close when a demolition crew arrives to assess the situation.

Bricks have been falling from what appears to be an abandoned building. Action News crews are on the scene and say there are still more bricks hanging precariously.

A passerby says the bricks were bowed out and bulging this weekend.

A demolition crew has been called in to scale the building to prevent more debris from falling onto the road.

The closure is expected to last until the afternoon.
