 Kenyan building collapse near Nairobi kills six people The collapse of an unfinished eight-storey building in Kenya has killed six people. The structure fell on Friday morning in Syokimau on the outskirts of Nairobi. Construction workers were reportedly at the site when the building’s uppermost concrete slab gave way, bringing down part of the structure, according to a preliminary report from Nairobi City County’s emergency team. The report did not establish why the slab failed. The Kenya Red Cross initially reported that three people had been rescued and one person was reported missing. TV reports later said that five people had been pulled alive from the rubble and taken to hospital. The emergency report said the number of workers present when the building fell had not been confirmed, leaving open the possibility that others were trapped. Firefighters and specialist rescue teams were continuing to search for survivors.

A LOS ANGELES TEEN CHOSE TO LEAP FROM THE FOURTH FLOOR OF HIS SCHOOL WHEN HE SAW NO END TO THE BULLYING.(PHOTO).


 A Los Angeles teen chose to leap from the fourth floor of his school when he saw no end to the bullying.


On Wednesday, September 30th, 17-year-old Xavier Nungarary ran from a classroom at Highland Park High School, where he had just endured multiple punches from a bully.


That terrible interaction was captured by cell phone video. 


After fleeing the classroom, Xavier ran to a nearby 4th floor balcony and landed on the concrete below. Xavier did not survive the fall. Several students were present and watched the horrible scene play out.


Xavier was attending his senior year, and it is absolutely heartbreaking that he saw no future when it was so close at hand.


In the wake of the tragedy, Xavier's family has spoken up, sharing that Xavier was frequently bullied.  Xavier's stepmother has shared that he was afraid to speak up because he thought he would get punished and not his bullies. Sadly, this is too common. 


The LAPD says they are aware of the video captured only moments before Xavier jumped. However, they are saying there is no evidence of foul play.


The school provided mental health support for students the following day, and family and friends held a memorial for Xavier outside of the school.


Rest in peace, Xavier... Our thoughts are with everyone who loved Xavier.
