A ceiling collapsed on top of people in a hospital with the horror moment captured on CCTV.

Around seven of them were standing or walking around when suddenly the structure flattened them.

Some tried to run away after spotting what was about to happen, but ended up being crushed to the ground.

Four people were left injured as a result of the incident, as reported by Need To Know.

An onlooker filmed the aftermath and the video showed others gathering to see what was going on.

A large hole could be seen left in the ceiling, as others rushed around to help those who were hurt.

It happened on the first floor of the Chazhou Central Hospital, in Guangdong Province, China, where the pharmacy is located last Thursday (5 Dec)

Treatment for those who were injured was organised immediately by the hospital.

One person suffered a calf fracture and a head injury and was admitted to the inpatient department.

The other three sustained mild bruising and abrasion, with one being hospitalised, and the others, going home after being treated.

All of those who were injured are in stable condition.

A construction unit was scheduled for personnel to attend the site so that an investigation could begin.

They also were instructed to repair the ceiling overnight to ensure that operations at the hospital’s outpatient clinic were not affected.
