Person hangs from rope bridge after deadly collapse
Raw video: Suspension bridge collapses in Villavicencio, Colombia
BOGOTA, Colombia – A suspension bridge popular with tourists in a rural area of central Colombia has failed, killing at least seven people and injuring 14 more.
The bridge near the city of Villavicencio is a major tourist attraction. Authorities say it may have turned upside down Monday due to overload during a busy three-day holiday weekend.
Those injured are being treated at a local hospital. Officials say they fear the death toll could rise because the injuries suffered by people spilled 80 meters (265 feet) into a gorge were severe.
Firefighters at the rescue scene say the dead included five adults and two minors.
