Several workers remained unaccounted for as rescuers searched for anyone who might still be trapped at the Edwardsville, Illinois facility, authorities said. Construction crews work at the site of a roof collapse at an Amazon distribution center in Edwardsville, Illinois. At least 30 workers were transported by bus from the scene and others may have left on their own, Fillback said. He said it had been difficult to get an exact number of workers who might be unaccounted for because the warehouse did not have "a set staff." Drone footage from the scene showed rescue workers picking through a huge area of debris in the pre-dawn darkness.
