Kolkata accident kills at least 23 people and injures more than 80

Using saws, small cranes and bare hands, rescuers cleared the crumbled concrete on Friday and twisted steel from an overpass that collapsed onto a crowded Kolkata neighborhood, killing at least 23 people and injuring more than 80.

With more than half the debris cleared by Friday, 67 people have been pulled out alive, police said. By noon, rescuers said there was little hope of finding any more survivors.
