Building collapse in India kills at least 10 people

At least 10 people are dead after a building collapsed in Indore, in the central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh, a local official said. Two others were wounded, district Chief Nishant Warwade said. A preliminary investigation revealed that a heavy vehicle rammed into a hotel's ground floor, which may have caused the collapse, said Deputy Inspector General of Police Harinarayana Chari Mishra. Rescue workers were clearing debris and continuing the rescue mission.

Warwade has ordered an investigation into the collapse. The incident comes about seven months after a three-story building collapsed in southern Mumbai in August, killing at least 33 people. The building collapse coincided with heavy rains that killed five people in Mumbai, devastating parts of India's bustling financial hub.
