A four-story building fell on Sunday in Suneka, Kisii County, killing five people. The building was still being built when it crashed down and trapped many workers and nearby neighbors under heavy stones and concrete. Three people died right away under the heavy mess. Two more passed away later at the hospital after rescue teams pulled them out alive. Four hurt people went to Kisii hospitals for help with their wounds. The crash happened near Itierio Primary School.
The big building tumbled onto the homes and shops next door. No one knows yet how many people are stuck inside the fallen building. Police teams and Kisii County rescue workers rushed to help dig through broken walls and floors. They heard one person talking from under the pile and worked hard to reach them. The Kenya Red Cross came quickly to the crash site to help find and save anyone left alive inside.
More people might have died by the time all search work ends. The county government planned to share more news about what happened at the Itierio area. Emergency teams kept working through piles of wood, metal, and broken cement to find anyone who might still be alive under everything. They hoped to save every life possible from this awful accident. The building crashed down Sunday morning without warning.
Workers had not finished making the building when it broke apart. The noise scared everyone living close by as walls tumbled. Rescue dogs helped find where humans lay trapped between broken pieces. Teams used special tools to lift heavy blocks off hurt people. They moved very carefully to avoid causing more harm to those caught inside. Phone calls reached family members to tell them about their loved ones.
The police blocked streets around the fallen building to keep more people safe. Big machines came to lift huge pieces that human hands could not move. Medical teams waited with stretchers for each person found alive. Water bottles passed around to tired rescue workers as the sun burned hot above them. Everyone prayed each time another person came out from the dusty pile, hoping they would live through this terrible day that changed many lives forever.
