Four dead after six-storey building partially collapses in Madrid

BBC:

Four people have died after a six-storey building which was being refurbished partially collapsed in the centre of the Spanish capital, Madrid.

The city’s mayor, Jose Luis Martinez-Almeida, said the bodies of the last two of the people reported missing were recovered on Wednesday morning – some 15 hours after several floors at the property on Hileras Street collapsed.

Local media said the victims were a 30-year-old Spanish woman, who was managing the project, as well as three male workers from Mali, Guinea and Ecuador, aged between 30 and 50. Three other people were injured.

The former office block was being converted into a hotel. Authorities have launched an investigation.
