Eleven workers were rescued from the rubble after an ancient Buddhist temple collapsed while it was being renovated. Dozens of specialists were restoring the 65ft high stone bell tower monument built in the 1700s when it collapsed trapping the group beneath the rubble in Bangkok, Thailand, at around 1:30pm on September 25. Eleven stranded workers - nine men and two women - were rescued and later in the evening when it was dark a 12th victim was recovered from the debris at the Phraya Tham Voraviharn Temple.
