| Damaged Ca Trang Bridge |
Police in Nam Can District said they were investigating the collapse of Ca Trang Bridge that seriously injured six people including two children.
The sand-carrying barge was moored near Ca Trang Bridge from the evening of January 12. The barge mooring rope snapped due to the strong current and the barge was swept into the bridge the next morning, breaking the bridge in half.
At the time, there were three vehicles on the bridge, carrying six people. The injured woman and two children have been transferred to Ca Mau General Hospital. A 10-year-old girl had a head injury. Three men were transferred to Nam Can District General Hospital.
Three motorbikes were also seriously damaged and the main route from Nam Can District centre to Hang Vinh Commune remains severed.
