Its been pretty grim. Reporter i have, eric, and ama, good evening to you. A lot of news is happening here today. As you look behind me you saw the live picture from 7 hd and behind me you see the burned out hole that was the ghost ship warehouse thats sadly become a tomb for 36 people and they do expect that number to go up as they search the rest of the building. Work has stopped at front of the building out of fear that there could be a potential for collapse. One wall was fairly unstable so they are worried about that, and its not just because of danger to the firefighters either, but also to preserve the area as potential criminal evidence. Thats an important phrase, criminal evidence. This morning crews pulled free three more bodies totaling as i said 36 killed by the fire. They have now searched 75 of the building, and they expect that they may find more victims as well. Tonight work could continue in areas closed because of potential danger. They hope that they will be able to get back to work searching the rest of the building. A News Conference wrapped up here less than an hour ago ten feet from where im standing. My colleague, abc 7 News ReporterLaura Anthony was attending that News Conference, and is here with the latest information on the investigation and the recovery effort. Laura . Well, thats right, dan. We also saw some images as to what it looks like inside that building. And recovery effort, search and recovery effort continues. Because of some concern about the front wall they have been working mostly in the back area of the building. We understand that that work began again this morning at about 9 00. Let show you some video from sky 7. What we shot this morning. This is the building as it looks at this point with the roof completely collapsed. The death toll holds steady at 36. It lists three of the victims from outside the united states, including, were told taiwan, guatemala and finland. Among the assets that have been brought in to help with this search and recovery effort, a giant crane, but first pg e had to cut off power to the immediate area. That happened just within the past hour, and, again, at this point they think they have searched most of this gutted structure. Very carefully as it is also a potential crime scene. We owe it to the community, to those who perished in this fire and to those who survived the fire to be methodical, to be thorough and to take the amount of time it takes to be able to look at every piece of potential evidence. Theres two areas of concern that we still have, and and at this time we cant locate any any other deceased victims, but we are prepared to remove them if the Fire Department and atf do locate them. Reporter the firefighters and search crews inside the building, they are literally going through the debris bucket by bucket. Its to preserve evidence and whatever human remains might still be inside that building. They are taking those buckets and they are putting them in dump trucks and then taking them to a site off site to go through them a second time even more carefully. Now, there are two key areas that they have yet to be able to search. One of them, were told, is a stage area on the second floor. Theres also another area near the front of the building which is the area they cant search just yet. There are some windows in that area, and theres suspicion there may be more victims there, but if theres any good news in all of this, dan, it is that the sheriff greg ahern said this afternoon he does not expect a huge number, his words, of additional victims, that they feel like they have recovered most of the bodies. They do have a list of folks that are miss mc, Something Like 50, but he suspects that many of those were not at this party or in this building on friday night, so they may be more victims, but as he said not a huge number. Back to you. Well, we can at least be thankful for that, laura. We can at least be thankful for that, laura, if that is the case. Lets hope that they do not find any more bodies at all, but certainly not a significant number of bodies. Now we now know the names of three Major Players in regards to the warehouse and the event that took place. Ch ng owns the building and lease it had to an artist collective owned by deric ion almena who rented it out to different artists who worked and lived in this structure. Jon hrabko was one of the promoters of the party. Oakland City Council Officials exnaekt there was no special permit for this event hand thats why a criminal investigation is ongoing. We were able to speak exclusively with the owner of the man who operated this building, deric ion almena. We did track him down and he was criticized for a Facebook Post where he didnt make any reference to the victims and hes since deleted his Facebook Page and he smoke to us briefly in oakland, and its an interview youll see only on abc 7. People have been wondering if you have anything to say to them. They are my children. They were my friends, they are my family, my loves hand my future. What else do i have to say . Now, since ion did not have a permit fire Officials Say criminal charges are a very real possibility, even if the cause of the fire was accidental. Thee was a lot of investigating being done here in addition to this recovery effort. Everything being preserved for a potential criminal case in this matter.

Sergio quintana, abc 7 news.
