Medieval Tower in Rome Suffers Partial Collapse

A medieval tower near Rome's Colosseum in the heart of the city partially collapsed on Monday during renovation work on the structure.

A worker was hospitalized with serious injuries following the first partial collapse of the tower, and two more workers suffered slight injuries but declined to be taken to the hospital, the ANSA news agency reported.

The 95-foot-high Torre dei Conti stands in Via dei Fori Imperiali, the broad avenue that leads from the central Piazza Venezia to the Colosseum.

The building has not been in use since 2006, but was being worked on as part of a four-year renovation project due to end next year, according to Rome's city authorities.
