US building collapse toll rises

  • 11 years ago
Search teams in Philadelphia pull a survivor from the wreckage of a building collapse after more than 12 hours.

The 61-year-old woman was said to be in a critical condition.

At least six people were killed when a building under demolition collapsed onto a neighbouring Salvation Army thrift store.

At least 14 people have been injured.

It's still unclear how many people were inside the thrift store when the accident happened.

Authorities say the cause of the collapse is still under investigation.
