Fox News · back to the audit

A harrowing video captured the moment a building collapsed as a magnitude 7.4 earthquake struck western Colombia early Monday, killing at least 111 people and injuring 87 others.
The video shows the building shaking and crumbling as onlookers scream before the structure ultimately gives way.
Colombian President Abelardo De La Espriella declared a state of emergency as rescue crews searched collapsed buildings across several cities, according to Reuters.
The U.S. Geological Survey said the earthquake struck near San Jose del Palmar in Choco at a depth of about 107 kilometers, or 66 miles.
At least 40 people were killed in Risaralda, home to hard-hit Pereira, while 27 were killed in Valle del Cauca, where Cali is located, The Associated Press reported, citing authorities.
Nine deaths were confirmed in Choco, two in Caldas and one in Antioquia, according to the outlet.
