POST 2 OF 2
The Fire Department has ended the search for victims in the collapse of a house recorded this Thursday morning (9), in Curitiba. The two brothers who lived in the residence were not there when the structure fell.
According to the sister-in-law of one of the residents, the brothers altered the structure to enlarge the house and that this structure was already at risk.
“We came here about 10 years ago to expand the structure of the house, they called the bricklayer, but it was not possible to change the house. They both work very hard and are difficult to locate. Fortunately, there were no people there and they allowed us to remove some of the remaining things,” the woman told RICtv.
