Red Sox Legend Pedro Martinez Reveals Family Missing After Roof Collapse

Boston Red Sox legend Pedro Martinez revealed on social media that several of his family members were inside the nightclub that collapsed in the Dominican Republic early Tuesday.

“I still have family members that are still in the rubbles, and we don’t know what happened to them,” Martinez said in a video posted to Instagram on Tuesday night.

At least 124 people were killed, with hundreds more injured from the collapse at the Jet Set nightclub in Santo Domingo that occurred around 1 a.m. Tuesday, per ESPN.

World Series champion Octavio Dotel and former MLB first baseman Tony Blanco were among the dead, as was Nelsy Cruz, the governor of the Monte Cristi province in the country and sister of seven-time MLB All-Star Nelson Cruz.

“It is with a heavy heart that it is my turn to actually send condolences to all our family members and the people here in the United States who have family over there,” Martinez said. “We’re all sad. We’re all affected by the tragedy. … Our hearts are with you. We all are affected.”

Rescue crews continued to search for survivors more than 24 hours after the collapse. Officials said Wednesday that they have rescued 145 people from the wreckage of the nightclub. An in-depth investigation into the collapse is expected as officials try to determine what caused the collapse and when the Jet Set building was last inspected.

The Red Sox released a message of support to the Dominican Republic on social media.
