The local government said another four people were seriously injured in the collapse on Tuesday afternoon .The mill's website said it was founded in 1983 and employs 500 people. Similar accidents in recent months have killed scores of Chinese, despite a push to boost safety and crack down on the corruption that facilitates it.
