Stadium Horror in Brazil ... 7 DIE

Seven people died when a section of stand at a stadium in northeastern Brazil gave way on Sunday as fans cheered at the end of a game, police said.

More than 60,000 fans were in the Fonte Nova stadium in the coastal city of Salvador where victims fell 49 feet through a 10-foot wide hole in the concrete stands, Bahia state secretary of sports Nilton Vasconcelos told the official Agencia Brasil news agency.
