Hello and welcome to the details of One dead, eight trapped after hotel collapses in Germany on river Moselle and now with the details
Nevin Al Sukari - Sana'a - FRANKFURT, Aug 7 — One person has died and eight others are trapped, some with severe injuries, after a hotel partially collapsed overnight near the banks of Germany’s river Moselle, local police said today.
The dead body has been located but could not yet be recovered, police said in a statement, adding that they have been able to establish contact with some of those still trapped.
“Due to the nature of the damage, this is an extremely demanding operation,” the statement said, adding that the building in the town of Kroev could only be entered by emergency responders with the utmost caution.
Images shared by local broadcaster SWR showed the building’s gable roof slanted backwards and parts of the ground floor crushed.
Investigators believe 14 people were in the building when the upper floor caved in at around 11pm (2100 GMT) yesterday, five of whom were able to escape without injury.
Police said 31 neighbours have also been evacuated from their homes in the damaged building for their own safety.
