No one knew the immediate reason for what caused the collapse.
There were hundreds of rescue workers using sniffer dogs, cranes, and high-tech sensors to help search the rubble and lifting slabs of concrete in hopes of freeing survivors.
The official China Daily newspaper said the building collapsed at 9:40am on Saturday. They still need to do some further investigation and oversee what actually caused the accident.
The region where the restaurant is lies in the heart of China's coal country, where thousands of miners have died in explosions, collapses, and floods over past years.
