Building Collapse in Adams County

(24/7 News) -- Adams County officials are continuing their search for the bodies of two men trapped beneath the rubble of a fallen power plant. Three workers pulled from the collapse Wednesday were taken to hospitals for treatment. Their conditions are unknown.

Crews are describing the search for the remaining two workers as a recovery mission, not a rescue.

The building fell Wednesday morning as members of a demolition crew were working to prepare the building for a controlled demolition next Monday. The investigation into what caused the collapse will begin in earnest after the missing workers are recovered.
