Building collapses on busy street as powerful quake hits Taiwan

CCTV footage shows a multi-storey building collapsing on a busy street in Hualien, as Taiwan was hit by its strongest earthquake in 25 years. The quake, given a magnitude of 7.2 by Taiwan’s earthquake monitoring agency and 7.4 by the US, struck close to the popular tourist city of Hualien, on Taiwan’s eastern coast, damaging buildings and trapping people amid aftershocks from the quake, which started at 7.58am.
