Indian rescuers pulled out eight bodies Sunday from the wreckage of a three-storey building in the city of Lucknow, reports said, with the state minister calling the deaths “heartbreaking”.

The Press Trust of India (PTI) news agency broadcast images of piles of concrete, and state rescue teams with heavy digging machines searching for bodies.

It was not clear if there were others still trapped.

The cause of the collapse is not known, but building and construction accidents are common during India´s June-September monsoon season, with old and rickety structures buckling under days of non-stop rain.

Akash Singh, who worked in the building, said a pillar had developed a crack.

Yogi Adityanath, Uttar Pradesh state chief minister, called the deaths “heartbreaking” in a statement, and offered his condolences to the grieving families of the dead.
