Two more bodies pulled from the rubble of 12-storey condo building near Miami, which partially collapsed last month.
The remains of a 12-storey building in south Florida that partially collapsed in the middle of the night last month will be demolished as early as Sunday, local officials said, as an incoming storm risks toppling the structure. Two more bodies were pulled from the rubble of Champlain Towers South in Surfside, near Miami, on Saturday, bringing the official number of deaths to 24. Search and rescue operations have continued as 124 people are still unaccounted for after the tower fell. Miami-Dade Fire Chief Alan Cominsky told reporters the demolition of what was left standing of the towers had to take place as soon as possible because Tropical Storm Elsa is forecast to reach southern Florida as early as Monday.
