Egypt rock slide toll rises to 31

Egyptian police on Sunday moved shanty town residents from the site of a rock slide that killed at least 31 and left countless more buried, after concerns that more rocks could tumble from the unstable cliffs overhead.

Journalists also were forced to leave the area by police. Heavy machinery had yet to tackle the massive slabs of rock, some the size of apartment buildings, that split away from the Muqattam cliffs early Saturday, crushing a shanty town below. (AP)
