In this update, Megan Lynch and Debbie Monterrey discuss the recent building collapse in Davenport, Iowa with CBS's Jim Krasula. The authorities have confirmed the recovery of all known bodies from the collapsed building. The release of a 911 call reporting the imminent collapse has raised concerns about prior warnings and actions taken by the building's owner and city officials. Protesters are demanding answers, and a petition calling for the mayor's resignation has been initiated. The recovery of three men's bodies has led to the conclusion of search and rescue operations. Questions are being raised about the series of errors and lack of definitive actions that led to this tragic event. Lawsuits have been filed, alleging negligence on the part of the city, engineers, and building owners.
