The death toll from the collapse of a building under construction in central Madrid rose to four on Wednesday after emergency services recovered the bodies of the last two people reported missing. Two bodies were found late Tuesday at the site near Plaza Mayor, a popular tourist area, hours after the building partially collapsed.

Firefighters recovered the other two in the early hours of Wednesdays. An investigation has been launched to determine the cause of the collapse of this former office building, which was being converted into a hotel.
