Amateur video captures the chaos after the roof of a Canadian shopping mall caved in.

It happened in the town of Elliot Lake in Ontario.

Four people have been injured but miraculously nobody was killed.

SOUNDBITE: REBECCA RICHER, WITNESS, SAYING (English):

"I heard a big boom and just called 911 (emergency services) and evacuate the mall, get everyone out."

SOUNDBITE: BRENDAN O'CONNELL, WITNESS, SAYING (English):

"We heard the panic so we crashed down. We'd seen everyone rushing out."

Still photos show the size of the hole left after the roof fell in.

There were unconfirmed reports that two vehicles on the rooftop car park may have fallen through.
