Emirati family escapes death after ceiling collapse

  RAS AL KHAIMAH - An Emirati family narrowly missed death after the concrete ceiling of their three-bedroom house at Filya area collapsed late on Monday. All 16 family members were sleeping in other rooms when the ceiling fell down in one room, said 55-year-old Mariam Rashid. Rashid said that the damaged room was usually frequented by children in the morning. The house was built in the early eighties and was due for renovations, Rashid said, adding that the contractor had fled without completing the construction.
