CHESTER (AP) -- A 60-foot section of a building under construction in a Richmond, Virginia suburb has collapsed, and authorities say initial reports indicate 12 workers were inside. I hope they all get out okay.

I hope all the workers get out alive. That is horrible. Did they say what caused it to collapse?

It is diffult to speculate on the cause it could be a design flaw or material flaw
