Miami building collapse: Four dead and 159 missing, officials say

Rescuers are desperately searching for any survivors trapped in the rubble of a collapsed 12-storey residential building north of the US city of Miami.

At least four have been killed and 159 are still missing, officials say.

As families desperately wait for news, search teams have been working around the clock and have reported hearing people banging beneath the debris.

What caused the 40-year-old building to collapse early on Thursday morning remains unclear.
