In China, three people were killed and five others injured when an eight-lane suspension bridge collapsed early today in the northeastern part of the country. The bridge, part of an airport expressway in Harbin city, was opened to traffic in November last year.
Officials said a 100-meter section broke off when four heavy trucks drove onto the bridge, plunging them to the ground. Two people were killed on the spot, while the third died later. Five people were injured and receiving treatment at a local hospital. Chinese official news agency Xinhua said at least six major bridges have collapsed across the country since July last year, and that shoddy(घटिया) construction and over-loading were to blame.
