Bengaluru: Five members of a family suffered severe injuries after a wall of their makeshift house collapsed on them in the early hours of Thursday.

Four of them are out of danger, while a seven-year-old boy is critical. 

The incident was reported from Ramanagar Town's Yarabnagar around 3 am. The family had built a makeshift house on a small hill called Gejjalagudde some months ago and had been staying there, according to the Ramanagar police. 

Police said relentless rains from Wednesday night slightly dislodged a huge boulder located just behind the house, causing it to touch the wall and lead to its collapse.
