India building collapse: 'Scores trapped' in Chennai

Rescue workers are searching through rubble after a building collapsed in southern India.

At least eleven people died and several were hurt when the 12-storey building under construction toppled in Chennai in heavy rain late on Saturday.

India has recently seen frequent building collapses, blamed on lax safety and substandard materials.
