| Demolition job leaves flats
untouched, but wrecks 24 nearby
homes |
An attempt to demolish a block of flats in Romania has left the block
untouched but made 24 nearby houses uninhabitable.
The promised 'controlled' explosion in the town of Flaminzi also blew
out every house window within 500 feet.
The roofs of two nearby buildings collapsed. The block of flats was due
to be destroyed to make way for a church.
Reports don't say whether there were any injuries as a result of the
botched demolition.
