Published:  December 24, 2003

At least four people have been killed and over 50 are missing following the collapse of a bridge over the River Chapare in the Cochabamba region of central Bolivia. Four vehicles, including a bus, were crossing the 350m bridge when it was washed away as heavy rainfall caused the river to rise. Soldiers and police continue to search for the missing people.
