9 September 2007: At least 10 people were killed and more than 15 people injured when a fly-over under construction collapse today evening.
Vehicles were crushed under the collapsed portion of the flyover. Some pedestrians, who were standing under the flyover to protect themselves from rains, were also feared trapped, according to eyewitnesses. The mishap occurred in the busy Nagarjuna Circle area in the heart of the Andhra Pradesh capital amid heavy rains.
Rescue operations are underway. Ambulances were rushed to the spot and at least 15 injured were shifted to the Nizam's Institute of Medical Sciences (NIMS).
This incident happened a few weeks after the twin bomb blast in the city, feared to be the handy work of terrorists. Hyderabad seems to be in the news for all the wrong reasons.
