Miner in Mexico rescued after two weeks trapped in collapsed mine

A miner in Mexico has been rescued after being trapped in a mine for two weeks, Mexico's President, Claudia Sheinbaum, confirms.

Two people died and two others were trapped when the mine collapsed on March 25.

One survivor was rescued after five days, but for the other it was a long wait to be rescued.

After two weeks of around-the-clock work, the man was finally found and brought out by rescue workers on Tuesday evening, local time.

"Incredibly, and fortunately, he was still alive," said President Claudia Sheinbaum during a press conference.
