One man killed and five others injured in Italy, after a bridge collapsed over a busy road. The bridge, in Lecco province near Milan, fell when an articulated lorry carrying a specially authorised heavy weight (108 tonnes) was crossing, crushing cars below.
At least four other cars were involved in the accident - one was completely crushed underneath the fallen bridge. Anas, Italy's road authority, insisted it had asked for the bridge to be closed at about 14:00 after one of its workers spotted problems.
It said Lecco province officials had demanded the information in writing - which required a formal inspection of the site. However, the bridge had collapsed before an inspector could reach it.
