A multistory apartment complex partially collapsed early Thursday in the South Florida town of Surfside, near Miami.

Mayor Charles W. Burkett confirmed to CNN that there is at least one fatality. Reports by late-Thursday afternoon said roughly 100 people were still missing, up from about 50 at mid-morning.

"This is a horrific catastrophe," Burkett said. "In the United States, buildings just don’t fall down."

The mayor told reporters that the building was undergoing roof work but didn’t say whether that contributed to the collapse.
