Only one fatality so far, thats surprising. Happened at 2 am ... wonder if there had been any odd sounds in the days leading up to the collapse.
 
It looks like it started from near the top down so that would probably rule out the sink whole theory that is going around. This is a 2017 image

Not sure how only one fatality. Recent reports say 51 unaccounted for. Based on the video and scope of the disaster I suspect the death toll will be considerably higher. Hard to wrap my head around this tragedy.
