Building collapse in Egypt's Alexandria kills several
An apartment building collapsed in the Mediterranean city of Alexandria, killing at least six people on Wednesday, Egyptian officials said.
Rescue workers were looking for any survivors trapped under rubble of the three-story building in the Moharam Bek neighborhood, an official said. The bodies of three men and three women had been recovered so far, the official said.
Alexandria's governor, Mohammed el-Sharif, said that initial reports suggested that two families of nine people were inside the building at the time of the collapse.
It was not immediately clear what caused the building to collapse. The governor said it was an old building constructed in the 1940s.
