One Dead and Dozens Injured in West Philadelphia Building Collapse
A West Philadelphia apartment house collapsed injuring about two dozen people, with one man killed.

Police said nearly everyone in the double dwelling was hurt to some degree, but only a few were hospital-bound. Rescue workers pulled survivors from the wreckage as the building’s structure failed further.
