Dozens trapped by New Zealand quake
February 22, 2011
• CHRISTCHURCH, New Zealand (AP) -- Office workers trapped
under their collapsed buildings sent messages to the outside
as rescuers with dogs scrambled to save them and dozens of
others following a powerful earthquake that killed at least 65 in
one of New Zealand's largest cities. At least 100 people were
reportedly buried in rubble as teams worked through the night
to try to reach them through slabs of crumbled concrete and
twisted metal.
Tuesday's 6.3-magnitude quake, the second powerful temblor
to hit Christchurch in five months, toppled the spire of the
city's historic stone cathedral, flattened tall buildings and sent
chunks of concrete and bricks hurtling onto cars, buses and
pedestrians below. The quake even shook off a massive chunk
of ice from New Zealand's biggest glacier some some 120 miles
(190 kilometers) to the east.

• CHRISTCHURCH, New Zealand (AP) -- Office workers trapped
under their collapsed buildings sent messages to the outside
as rescuers with dogs scrambled to save them and dozens of
others following a powerful earthquake that killed at least 65 in
one of New Zealand's largest cities. At least 100 people were
reportedly buried in rubble as teams worked through the night
to try to reach them through slabs of crumbled concrete and
twisted metal.
Tuesday's 6.3-magnitude quake, the second powerful temblor
to hit Christchurch in five months, toppled the spire of the
city's historic stone cathedral, flattened tall buildings and sent
chunks of concrete and bricks hurtling onto cars, buses and
pedestrians below. The quake even shook off a massive chunk
of ice from New Zealand's biggest glacier some some 120 miles
(190 kilometers) to the east.

• CHRISTCHURCH, New Zealand (AP) -- Office workers trapped
under their collapsed buildings sent messages to the outside
as rescuers with dogs scrambled to save them and dozens of
others following a powerful earthquake that killed at least 65 in
one of New Zealand's largest cities. At least 100 people were
reportedly buried in rubble as teams worked through the night
to try to reach them through slabs of crumbled concrete and
twisted metal.
Tuesday's 6.3-magnitude quake, the second powerful temblor
to hit Christchurch in five months, toppled the spire of the
city's historic stone cathedral, flattened tall buildings and sent
chunks of concrete and bricks hurtling onto cars, buses and
pedestrians below. The quake even shook off a massive chunk
of ice from New Zealand's biggest glacier some some 120 miles
(190 kilometers) to the east.

• CHRISTCHURCH, New Zealand (AP) -- Office workers trapped
under their collapsed buildings sent messages to the outside
as rescuers with dogs scrambled to save them and dozens of
others following a powerful earthquake that killed at least 65 in
one of New Zealand's largest cities. At least 100 people were
reportedly buried in rubble as teams worked through the night
to try to reach them through slabs of crumbled concrete and
twisted metal.
Tuesday's 6.3-magnitude quake, the second powerful temblor
to hit Christchurch in five months, toppled the spire of the
city's historic stone cathedral, flattened tall buildings and sent
chunks of concrete and bricks hurtling onto cars, buses and
pedestrians below. The quake even shook off a massive chunk
of ice from New Zealand's biggest glacier some some 120 miles
(190 kilometers) to the east.

• CHRISTCHURCH, New Zealand (AP) -- Office workers trapped
under their collapsed buildings sent messages to the outside
as rescuers with dogs scrambled to save them and dozens of
others following a powerful earthquake that killed at least 65 in
one of New Zealand's largest cities. At least 100 people were
reportedly buried in rubble as teams worked through the night
to try to reach them through slabs of crumbled concrete and
twisted metal.
Tuesday's 6.3-magnitude quake, the second powerful temblor
to hit Christchurch in five months, toppled the spire of the
city's historic stone cathedral, flattened tall buildings and sent
chunks of concrete and bricks hurtling onto cars, buses and
pedestrians below. The quake even shook off a massive chunk
of ice from New Zealand's biggest glacier some some 120 miles
(190 kilometers) to the east.
