New York building collapse not terrorism-WHouse

WASHINGTON, July 10 (Reuters) A building collapse in New York was not related to an act of terrorism, the White House said today.

''As far as we know at this point, no terrorism nexus,'' White House spokesman Tony Snow said. The building and some neighboring buildings were evacuated, with ''no reported injuries,'' although there were press reports of people trapped in the rubble, he said.
