| (Reuters) - At least 18 people were killed in a stampede in the Indian city of Allahabad on Sunday as Hindus returned from a river dip at the world's largest religious festival. An overcrowded railway station footbridge buckled and a railing collapsed, sending some people slipping down the stairs and triggering the stampede, a top state government official told Reuters, not wishing to be quoted by name. "I can confirm that 18 people have died and 13 have been injured," said the official. more here: http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/02/10/us-india-kumbhmela-stampede-idUSBRE91909420130210 | |
