At least 15 people were rescued after a shopping mall under construction collapsed yesterday evening in Kisumu. Eight people, among them a school pupil, were rushed to hospital in critical condition.

The 4pm incident left 30 construction workers trapped in the rubble of the collapsed shopping mall, which was under construction. By 10pm on Wednesday, 15 people had been rescued, according to the police.

Three bulldozers are on the site ploughing through the rubble to rescue more people. Police working together with locals, Red Cross volunteers and the National Youth Service led the recovery operations. (Daily Nation)
