Rescue Efforts Continue After South Africa Building Collapse
The four-story building under construction collapsed on Monday, killing at least eight people and leaving dozens of others missing.
It’s a very controlled process whereby we remove one floor, we search the area, we put the dogs on, we do technical search. If we find nothing, we then remove the next floor. We’ve got lookouts to make sure that if we do uncover a victim, we’re able to go in there and remove them. This is an ongoing process. We will be getting more specialized equipment in this afternoon, and then we’re going to be going into the basement and into the lift shaft that’s still in place. You know, the part of it that’s still intact, and hopefully that’s where they’ll still be a lot of voids and where we can possibly still find victims.
