Kolkata Bridge Collapse: Death toll rises to 24; Police detains five IVRCL officials

Rescuers said on Friday there was no hope of finding any more survivors after clearing the crumbled concrete and twisted metal rods from an under-construction flyover that collapsed onto a crowded street in Kolkata, killing at least 24 people and injuring more than 80. Police detained five officials from a Hyderabad-based construction company contracted in 2007 to build the overpass, and sealed its Kolkata office. Sixty-seven people were pulled from the debris alive, and by Friday afternoon the wreckage was cleared.
