PHOTOS: Two construction workers still missing after building collapse - Report


Two construction workers on the Royalton Hotel site that collapsed on Tuesday are reportedly still missing.
The Ministry of Health reportedly made the disclosure at around midday.
The Royalton Hotel is being established on the property which is the former Grand Lido Hotel, and is undergoing major reconstruction. A section of the resort under construction collapsed at about 6am, injuring several workers.
Five injured workers have been taken to the Noel Holmes Hospital in Hanover and the Savanna-la- Mar Hospital in Westmoreland, for treatment. One of the victims is reportedly in critical condition.
Reports are that the men were pouring concrete on a section of the construction site when it collapsed.
There is currently a large team of police and more than 20 firefighters and other rescue workers at the site.
Loop News was able to get some photos of the search and rescue that is now underway.
