A nine-story building under construction in a city north of the Philippine capital Manila. Police and officials say 24 workers managed to get out or were rescued and at least 21 remain missing. The building collapsed before dawn on Sunday after a fierce thunderstorm in Angeles City in Pampanga province. Police Brig. Gen. Jess Mendez says more than 100 police and other government personnel are scrambling to rescue those believed to be trapped in the rubble. Angeles City hosted one of the largest U.S. Air Force bases outside of the American mainland until it closed in the early 1990s. The former air base, now called the Clark Freeport Zone, is about 50 miles north of Metro Manila.
