Building collapse near Kenyan capital kills 3; more missing

NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — A multi-story building has collapsed outside Kenya’s capital, killing a woman and two children. Rescuers are picking through the debris in search of a family reported missing. Such incidents aren’t uncommon in Nairobi and elsewhere in Kenya amid weak oversight, shoddy construction and corruption. The governor of Kiambu county says four people were rescued, including a child, after the collapse in Kirigiti.
