A week after the earthquakes, Venezuela still searches for its thousands missing

Rescue teams in Venezuela are working frantically to free a man that's been trapped in the rubble of a collapsed building for eight days.

For the past seventy-two hours - emergency workers from seven countries have worked nonstop trying to free 43-year-old Hernan Gil. He's a security guard buried inside his booth in the coastal city of Catia La Mer.

Rescuers say it's a miracle he's still alive. Meanwhile the Venezuelan government has updated the death toll from that deadly quake - at least 2,295 people have been killed and more than 11,000 injured.

The United Nations says its procuring 10,000 body bags for the country.
