CAMP OLIVAS, Pampanga  , Philippines – Two construction workers were buried alive when heavy rains triggered a mudslide on a mountainside in Olongapo City Monday afternoon, authorities said.

The fatalities, identified as Gilbert Dalisay, 38, and Ronnie Lastimada, 22, were buried in 10 to 12 feet of mud.

A third worker, Edmar Vijiga, 19, survived the tragedy. He was rushed to the James Gordon Memorial Hospital for treatment.
