One more person has been rescued and taken to a hospital after a building collapsed in Iowa
Davenport Fire Chief Michael Carlsten said at a news conference on Monday that it was unclear how many people, if any, were still missing after an apartment building in the eastern Iowa city collapsed.
Authorities found a gas leak after the collapse, Carlsten said, while water also had leaked throughout the floors of the structure. “When we started to go back in the lights went out,” he told the newspaper. “All of a sudden everybody started running out saying the building collapsed. I’m glad we came down when we did.”“This is horrible,” he said. “We don’t have anywhere to go. Nothing to eat.”
Jennifer Smith, co-owner of Fourth Street Nutrition, said she learned of the explosion from her husband, who works for Mid-American Energy.
