Four more bodies have been pulled from the rubble of the partly collapsed condo tower in Surfside, Florida, raising the confirmed death toll from the disaster to 16, officials said Wednesday.
Search-and-rescue crews working on the huge pile of pulverized concrete and steel at the site of the crumbled Champlain Towers South recovered the additional bodies overnight, Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava said at a press conference.
There are currently 147 people unaccounted for, Cava said.
A massive wing of the 12-story oceanfront condo building suddenly came crashing down at around 1:30 a.m. on June 24.
Florida officials have vowed to launch multiple investigations into the collapse.
