A seven-year-old boy died in hospital after rescuers dug him out from rocks and mud following a landslide in Xuancheng City in east China's Anhui Province, local fire police said today.
The landslide occurred at 1:47 pm yesterday in Xiwu Village of Guangde County. Two senior citizens who were also buried are receiving hospital treatment, according to Xuancheng City Fire Police sources.
Xuancheng City Fire-fighting Department fire fighter Zhu Wei said that the collapsing hill was about 15 meters high.

The two older citizens, not deeply buried, were immediately rescued and sent to hospital.
It took rescuers three hours to dig out the boy who suffered a serious head injury, Zhu said.
