In March 1993, an American tourist visiting family in Glasgow was trapped under the rubble of a Bridgeton tenement for three hours.
Anne Zennaiter, from New York, was staying with her aunt on Springfield Road when the three-storey building collapsed. At the time, workmen were digging foundations for new housing in a vacant site next to the tenement.
Rescue workers dug with their bare hands to pull the 55-year-old woman from the rubble of the building, before she was eventually freed and carried by stretcher with paramedics holding a drip over her head. There were fears other residents of the Springfield Road building would also have been trapped, though rescue workers confirmed only Anne was pinned by rubble.
