At least four workers were killed when a building under construction collapsed in Nairobi’s Eastleigh area.
The incident happened along Muratina Road Saturday afternoon as the workers were busy on site, police and witnesses said.
Nairobi police boss Adamson Bungei said four workers were killed on the spot.
He added six others were injured and rushed to hospital.
“We have confirmed four deaths and there are six injuries so far. We are investigating the tragedy,” he said.
He added they did not expect to find more people in the rubble as the workers who were on duty had been accounted for.
However, the rescue and search mission went on.
This is the latest such incident to happen in the city.
Nairobi and Kiambu among other regions are experiencing a construction boom with most buildings going more than six floors.
There are fears some of these structures are being constructed without proper supervision.
