Thirteen killed and 20 trapped as concrete overpass under construction collapses in Bangladeshi city

At least 13 people were killed when an overpass being built in Bangladesh's second largest city collapsed. Around 20 people are still thought to be trapped following the collapse of the overpass in Chittagong, in the south east of the country on Saturday after three 138ft-long concrete beams collapsed. The tragedy sparked widespread outrage with hundreds of protestors angry at the emergency services apparent slow response setting light to cars and a police outpost, according to witnesses.
