Multi Story Malcom Departmental Store in Ghana Collapses

Not fewer than 200 people were trapped underneath the rubble of a multi-story department store, Melcom Shopping Complex in Achimota, which has just collapsed in Ghana's capital, Accra.

Rescue workers are trying to save the people who are trapped in the building. President Mahama sent out a tweet shortly after the building collapsed and said; "My prayers are with the workers, shoppers and others who are trapped in the rubble of the Achimota Melcom building." My prayers are with them also!
