Eight people have been rescued from office space located below a collapsed rooftop parking lot in east Vancouver, but fire officials say it’s still too early to tell if everyone is accounted for.

Vancouver Fire Asst. Chief Dan Moberg says the eight were in a room beside the collapsed area and crews used a ladder truck to reach a second-floor window and remove the trapped people.
