Rescuers search for survivors of collapse

Building may have been damaged in the Oct 26 quake, Punjab chief minister says

Pakistani rescuers pulled 99 people out alive from the rubble of a collapsed factory and are searching for an unknown number of others believed still trapped in a disaster that has killed at least 18, officials said on Thursday.

Soldiers and rescuers in Lahore were carefully cutting through steel and using cranes to lift the debris of the building which came crashing down on Wednesday night, less than two weeks after a magnitude-7.5 earthquake rocked the region.
