Earthquake Rocks Italy: At Least 50 Dead

Earthquake Rocks Italy: At Least 50 Dead

A powerful earthquake that tore through central Italy has killed at least 50 people, with authorities warning that the toll will rise as bodies are uncovered. The Abruzzo capital of L'Aquila was ravaged by the overnight quake, many of its Renaissance and Baroque buildings tumbling in the disaster. Roofs caved in on sleeping inhabitants and boulders fell off mountain slopes, blocking many roads. A state of emergency has been declared.
