12 dead, 149 unaccounted for in Surfside condo collapse

Six days after the 12-story condo building in Surfside, Florida came crashing down, search and rescue crews continue to comb through the rubble as 149 people are still unaccounted for. Officials announced another confirmed death, bringing the number of fatalities up to 12. A structural engineer from Washington, DC has been called to investigate the collapse. Allyn Kilsheimer was part of the September 11 Pentagon attack investigation, as well as the bombing of the Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City in 1995, and the World Trade Center bombing in 1993. He walks AC360 through what the investigation will look like. Plus, Sara Nir along with two of her children safely escaped the condo just before it came crashing down. Sara and her daughter Chani join AC360 to describe how they safely escaped and why they first thought it was an earthquake.
