GUINSAUGON, Philippines (AP) - Aerial photographs spotted what is believed to be the roof of an elementary school swamped by a landslide, and rescue workers will undertake a risky mission to check it, the provincial governor said Thursday.
The roof was spotted far from what was believed to have been its original site. Rescue workers, who were forced off the disaster zone by heavy rains Thursday morning, planned to try to reach the roof on Friday after a former resident is brought in to confirm that it came from the school, provincial Gov. Rosette Lerias told a news conference.
"This is the first time we've seen the green roof of a building that resembles very much the green roof of the elementary school that we've been looking for," Lerias said.
