An overpass collapsed near the Indian city of Kolkata, killing 10 people and leaving dozens missing, authorities said.
More than 100 people are unaccounted after the incident Thursday in a busy commercial area, said Sgt. Saurav Benerjee of Kolkata police.
Slabs from the flyover, which has been under construction for five years, fell on moving vehicles, he said.
Some people are feared trapped in their cars while construction workers may be buried under the debris.
