Rescuers continued their frantic search Thursday for a man trapped under rubble of a shuttered coal processing building that collapsed in rural Kentucky, officials said. When Martin County Judge/Executive Lon Lafferty told reporters that searchers were still working feverishly to find the man alive — after another man was declared dead in the incident — it'd been about 40 hours since the deadly building collapse occurred. 'We haven’t given up hope,' Lafferty said.
As crews remove debris, other searchers are taking a second look at the broken steel and concrete for possible clues. Those workers are doing 'a secondary search' for any evidence for the last known location of the victim, said Louisville Metro Emergency Services Director Jody Meiman, who leading this search. 'It's a very methodical process, it's a very slow process, but it's a process that has to take place,' Meiman added.
