A hotel in Germany's picturesque Moselle wine valley collapsed overnight, killing two people, local police said on Wednesday, as rescuers worked urgently to extricate one remaining guest who was trapped in the rubble, Paralel.Az reports citing Reuters.

One woman's body was recovered but emergency responders have not yet been able to reach the body of the second victim, a male, rescue operation chief Joerg Teusch told reporters.

Six people were rescued during the day in a complex operation as the two-storey building was unstable after its upper floor caved in late on Tuesday, said police and rescuers.
