Latvia store collapse: Deaths rise as Riga rescue continues
At least 32 people have died after the roof of a supermarket collapsed in the Latvian capital Riga.

Rescue efforts continued through the night and police have launched a criminal investigation.

Three of those killed were emergency workers who were helping people trapped when more of the roof came down.

The number of deaths makes this the former Soviet republic's worst disaster since independence in 1991, the country's main news agency says.

It is unclear how many more people could still be inside.
