The death toll in the Florida condo collapse jumped to 46 Wednesday after search-and-rescue workers pulled 10 additional bodies from the massive pile of rubble at the site, officials said.
More than 90 people still remained unaccounted for as the search for victims at the collapsed Champlain Towers South high-rise in Surfside entered its 14th day on Wednesday.
"Every single victim uncovered is somebody's child, somebody's mother, somebody's teacher, somebody's colleague, a classmate, a best friend," a tearful Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava said at a press briefing as she announced the new confirmed death toll. "Our hearts break for those who are mourning and for those who are waiting, and waiting."
No survivors have been found in the wreckage since workers pulled the first fatal victim – 54-year-old mother Stacie Dawn Fang – out of the debris in the initial hours of last month's disaster.
Nearly half of the 12-story oceanfront condo building suddenly came crashing down to the ground on June 24 as many residents inside were asleep in their beds.
The damaged remains of the Miami-area building were brought down over the weekend in a controlled demolition after officials feared the structure would also collapse.
The demolition has allowed search teams to have access to parts of the debris pile that they were previously unable to.
