5 Dead, 3 Missing in Argentina Supermarket Cave-in

Five people died and another three were missing after a supermarket partially collapsed in southern Argentina, authorities said Saturday as they released a revised death toll.

The fatal accident happened Thursday in the city of Neuquen, about 1,150 km (715 miles) southwest of Buenos Aires, when a nearby building under construction fell onto the store. Authorities were still searching Saturday for the missing, Gabriel Gastaminza, a provincial official, told Telam news agency.

Earlier, officials said at least three people were killed.

Another 17 people were rescued from the rubble and treated in local hospitals, Gastaminza said.
