Two children were among the eight people killed in the horrific building collapse in Brooklyn, city officials said Thursday. Only one of those killed in the collapse at 1321 Flatbush Ave. has been identified so far – 26-year-old dad and construction worker Jose Luis Caguana – but sources told The Post that a 10-year-old boy and a 9-year-old girl were also among the dead. Mayor Zohran Mamdani said two of the victims were workers from a neighboring construction site that is being eyed as a potential cause of the partial collapse at 4 p.m. Wednesday. “Eight of our fellow New Yorkers, six adults and two children, have died as a result of the three-story building collapse here at 1321 Flatbush Ave.,” Mamdani said at a Thursday press briefing.
