A French search and rescue team in Haiti hope to rescue a young woman who they believe is alive but trapped in the remains of a collapsed university building in Port-au-Prince.

The earthquake happened two weeks ago and the main rescue operation has been drawn to a close but the woman is believed to have phoned a friend to say she was still alive.
