At Least Five Dead after Building Collapses in Egypt

A 12-story building collapsed in Alexandria, Egypt on Monday morning killing at least five people and leaving several unaccounted for as rescuers continue to look for survivors.

 

The building, which was constructed to house residents in the port city, was originally designed with seven stories but had an additional five floors built over the years.

 

Rescue workers have found at least one survivor buried in the rubble but believe there are still several trapped under the slabs of concrete.
