Nine people were transported to either Highland Hospital or Eden Medical Center in Castro Valley, he said.
Three people remain in critical condition for broken bones and at least one had a broken pelvis, according to Sheppard.
City building engineers were called to assess the building and the cause of the collapse is under investigation, he said.
