A devastating earthquake struck Venezuela, causing widespread destruction. A high-rise building collapsed and caught fire, trapping many inside.

Noel Márquez, who was not at home at the time, rushed back to find his family buried under the rubble. He was able to locate his 17-year-old brother, Leonel, who was pinned under columns. Despite his efforts to get help, Leonel succumbed to his injuries after several hours.

Further details on the earthquake and its aftermath are available from KPRC 2 Houston. The incident has left many, including Márquez, to recover and mourn their losses.
