Roof collapse death toll rises to 57 in Moscow
Rescuers, pausing frequently to put their ears to the rubble to listen for signs of life, pulled scores of corpses out of a mass of concrete planks and metal beams after the snow-laden roof of a Moscow market collapsed.
At least 57 people were killed and 32 injured in the collapse early yesterday morning, Emergency Situations Ministry spokeswoman Irina Andriyanova said today.
