Miami, 12-storey building collapses: many victims are feared

A 12-story condominium building partially collapsed this morning in Miami. The building was located on Collins Avenue in Surfside, Miami-Dade County relief sources quoted by local media say. Dozens of rescue teams from the county and surrounding towns have flocked to the scene. Local authorities have not yet confirmed if there are deaths and injuries, but according to a firefighter on the spot there are many casualties. So a building next to my hotel collapsed in Miami Beach during the middle of the night. pic.twitter.com/qLhlhRnP1X— Jamal Akakpo (@AkakpoJamal) June 24, 2021
