A fifth construction worker was confirmed dead Saturday after a concrete beam and slabs collapsed at a supermarket building site in the city of Florence a day earlier, Italian officials said.
"I’ve just been informed that rescuers have located the body of a fifth worker," Eugenio Giani, the Tuscany regional president, said.
Search teams were working to reach the body under the rubble. Earlier, firefighters' spokesman Luca Cari told Italian TV channel RaiNews that emergency personnel had recovered the body of a fourth worker.
"The mass of rubble is enormous," Cari said. "It will take time to secure the site."
