Evacuated residents collect belongings as Iceland eruption risk looms

Residents of Grindavik, southwestern Iceland, collect their belongings from their homes during a brief window allowed by authorities as the town faces the eruption of a nearby volcano. Grindavik was evacuated on Saturday after hundreds of earthquakes were caused by magma shifting under the Earth's crust, damaging roads and buildings. Experts say the quakes could be a precursor to a volcanic eruption and the Icelandic state has declared a state of emergency over the risk.
