Luciano Sarmento of Rio’s fire department said Saturday he hoped survivors would be found because “air pockets may have been formed allowing people to breathe.”
Buildings next to those that fell were evacuated for fear of new collapses. Residents were allowed into their homes for a few minutes to retrieve personal belongings.
