Tourists escape death after bridge overturns in China
Beijing. At least 15 of some 20 people were rescued after they fell into a river from an overturned suspension bridge at a popular tourist town in central China on Wednesday night.
The tilted suspension bridge in Fenghuang County, central China’s Hunan Province. About 40 people, who returned from a bonfire party, were on the bridge when the bridge floor suddenly tilted in Fenghuang at around 9:10 p.m. on May 1, and more than 20, including children and elderly people, fell into the 1.2-meter-deep river water.
