SURFSIDE, Fla.—Rescue crews near Miami combed through tons of rubble on June 24 for possible survivors of a predawn collapse of part of an oceanfront residential tower, with officials reporting at least one person was found dead and at least 99 more were missing.
Sally Heyman, a Miami-Dade County commissioner, said officials had been unable to make contact with dozens of individuals who “supposedly” live in the building, which is home to a mix of people including families and part-time “snow bird” residents who spend the winter months in Florida.
