Race to rescue survivors from ruins of Mexico quake

JUCHITÁN DE ZARAGOZA, Mexico: Police, soldiers and emergency workers raced to rescue survivors from the ruins of Mexico's most powerful earthquake in a century, which killed at least 61 people, as storm Katia menaced the country's east Saturday.

In the southern region hit hardest by the quake, emergency workers looked for survivors— or bodies—in the rubble of houses, churches and schools that were torn apart in the 8.1-magnitude quake.
