Overpass built for World Cup football fans to get to matches collapses killing two and 'trapping many more'

Belo Horizonte

Firefighters said the overpass over the Pedro I avenue - close to the Mineirao football stadium in Belo Horizonte - fell on top of a car, two trucks and a bus.
The driver of the bus (left) has been confirmed as among the dead. The car was completely flattened by the concrete structure and police fear more bodies could be trapped underneath the collapsed structure.

The next match is the World Cup semi-final on Tuesday.
