Four of the five people who were killed when a Surfside, Florida, condo building collapsed in the early hours of Thursday have been identified.

Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava said at a press conference on Saturday that there are still 156 people unaccounted for.

On Friday, the Miami-Dade County Medical Examiner's office identified Stacie Fang, 54, as one of the four victims at the time, who died as a result of the collapse of the Champlain Towers South building on Thursday morning.

Fang was the first victim identified. She died at the Aventura Hospital and Medical Center about two hours after the collapse.

Fang's 15-year-old son was pulled from the rubble and survived.

On Saturday, police found the remains of one more individual. They also identified three other victims: Antonio Lozano, 83, Gladys Lozano, 79, and Manuel LaFont, 54.

Sergio Lozano, the son of Gladys and Antonio Lozano told Miami local news station WTVJ that officials had taken his DNA to help identify those that were unaccounted for. He later got a call that his parent's bodies were found.

He told the outlet that his parents were scared to die without each other.

Houston local news station KPRC reported that LaFont was a Houston native, and family members described him as a loving father and a good-hearted human being. They told the outlet that another young man from Houston was staying with LaFont when the building collapsed.
