According to the outlet, Navy Assistant Secretary Angel Enrique Sarmiento said that all the school’s children had been accounted for – despite blood traces and other signs pointing to someone alive and stuck under the collapsed school. “We have done an accounting with school officials and we are certain that all the children either died, unfortunately, are in hospitals or are safe at their homes,” said Sarmiento, according to ABC News.
