Vijayapura: 3 workers rescued, more still feared trapped after storage unit collapses at warehouse

Vijayapura: Three workers were rescued hours after more than 10 were feared trapped beneath sacks of grains at a warehouse in Vijaypura.

“Some workers are stuck in the warehouse. About 10-12 workers may still be stuck while three have already been rescued. They have been admitted to a private hospital and are currently under treatment,” Deputy Commissioner (DC) of Vijayapura T Bhoobalan was quoted speaking to ANI.

The workers were trapped beneath sacks of grains after a storage unit collapsed at a warehouse in Vijaypura earlier on Monday. Visuals showed officials concerned conducting a rescue operation to bring out the trapped workers.

Further details are awaited.
