| 0:00.0 | Good evening. We're waiting for briefing expected shortly from officials in |
| 0:04.5 | Surfside, Florida where at least 99 people are still unaccounted for after |
| 0:09.1 | parts of the 12th story of apartment building collapsed in the early hours of |
| 0:12.6 | this morning. Surveillance video you see captured the moment is one section |
| 0:17.0 | then the next at Champlain Tower South about 55 units in all came down. This was |
| 0:23.5 | about 130 in the morning. Crews have been on the scene almost ever since. |

| 1:30.4 | easy. There were some heavy rains here earlier today and every time that |
| 1:34.1 | building shifts it has the potential for some small fires. We saw one of those |
| 1:37.9 | earlier today but rescuer say Anderson they will work through the night. In a |
| 1:45.0 | matter of moments a huge chunk of the Champlain Tower South in Surfside Florida |
| 1:49.6 | collapses into a cloud of dust. This video appears to show what happened at about |
