Six people 'found alive' in avalanche-hit hotel

Six people have been found alive by emergency services looking for survivors of a devastating avalanche that buried an Italian mountain hotel.
Rescuers are working to free them from the snow, fire brigade spokesman Luca Cari said.
         
"They are alive and we are talking to them," Mr Cari told Reuters by telephone, speaking from the scene.

So far two bodies have been found and Italian media said two other bodies had been located.

25 people, including several children, were feared dead after a barrage of snow hit the Hotel Rigopiano on Wednesday afternoon, ripping the three-storey building from its foundations and moving it ten metres.
