 NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) - The construction workers had just finished lunch and many were taking a nap when the five-story building began to sway, then quickly collapsed, killing at least 11 and injuring dozens, survivors and officials said.
Rescuers dug frantically through the rubble with bare hands, metal-cutters and crowbars to reach survivors who shouted through drainage pipes and holes, while lights were set up so the search could continue into the night.
One person called a relative on a cell phone and said he was alive under the concrete and steel. A trapped person's hand could be seen waving for help from beneath a beam.
