CHESTER, Virginia (AP) -- Authorities say part of a building under construction in a Richmond, Virginia, suburb has collapsed, and as many as 12 workers may be inside.




A dozen workers may be trapped in a collapsed building in Chester, Virginia.

 Chesterfield County Fire Lt. Matt Coffin says 911 dispatchers received reports that a dozen workers were inside when a 60-foot-section came crashing down Wednesday.

Crews are at the scene attempting to stabilize the rubble before going inside.

The site of the collapse is about 15 miles south of Richmond.
