Two people have died and up to 10 others including two children are said to be missing after a bridge collapse in Brazil.
Seven vehicles including two motorbikes, three lorries and a car were on the bridge connecting the cities of Estreito and Aguiarnopolis over the Tocantins River when it plunged into the water.
The rescue operation was suspended last night as Civil Defence chiefs confirmed a tanker truck carrying sulphuric acid was among the vehicles that ended up in the river.
An investigation was underway today into the collapse yesterday afternoon of the 1960s-built 1,750ft Juscelino Kubitschek de Oliveira Bridge.
