Families of more than 100 people still missing after a partial condo building collapse in Surfside, Florida, received sobering news Sunday, when the death toll reached nine and a fire chief said the situation looked dire.
It came the same day as CNN learned that a town building official told residents in November 2018 that the building was in very good shape, just days after receiving a report that warned of major structural damage to the tower involved in the collapse.
Rescue crews have been sifting through a mountain of rubble since Thursday morning, hoping to find those missing.
Four more of the dead have been identified, Miami-Dade Mayor Daniella Levine Cava said at a news briefing Sunday evening. A total of 134 people have been accounted for and 152 remain unaccounted for, she said.
