A desperate search is underway for unaccounted residents after a huge six-storey apartment building collapsed - just months after locals claimed it was unsafe.
Fire crews rushed to the apartment in Davenport, Iowa, on Sunday evening in an attempt to dig through the rubble and find survivors after the back of the six-story apartment complex collapsed and had separated from the building, which houses apartments on the upper floors and businesses on the ground level.
Seven people were rescued from the building and twelve were taken from the collapse of the apartment - with an air ambulance transferring the affected residents to a local hospital.
