The country is in mourning.
There are vigils taking place and books of condolences being signed all over the country after the tragic news from Berkeley yesterday where six people died after a balcony collapsed.
The families of those who passed away have arrived or will arrive in California sometime today. Our thoughts are with them.
Naturally, the front pages of every newspaper in country is carrying the story with the majority of them showing photos of those who died.
