Overpass collapse kills two in Brazil World Cup city
An unfinished overpass being built for the World Cup crashed down on several vehicles in Brazil's southeastern city of Belo Horizonte on Thursday, killing at least two people and injuring 22.
Globo television images showed the front of a yellow bus crushed under a large stretch of the fallen highway, which is about five kilometers (three
miles) from the city's World Cup stadium and was being built as part of delayed infrastructure improvements for the tournament.
"It was like an earthquake. The ground shook violently," Daniel Magalhaes, who was near the site at the time of the accident, told Globo. "I heard a deafening sound. I looked and saw the collapsed overpass."
Two people were killed and 22 injured, the health agency of the state of Minas Gerais said. The fire brigade had earlier given a toll of one dead and 13 injured.
A firefighters' spokesman said 13 people were rescued from the bus unscathed but the woman driver was killed.
A car was also crushed but it was not immediately known how many people were inside and what their condition was, firefighter spokesman Edgard Estevo da Silva told reporters.
"The vehicle is completely under the overpass," he said.
Two trucks belonging to the construction company were also hit but the firm said nobody was inside them at the time, Silva said.
A total of 14 firefighting teams were at the scene. (AFP)
