Landslide kills 3, injures 2 in S China

Three people were killed and two injured Saturday after a landslide brought down a wall of a car washing shop in south China's Yunnan province, local authorities said. The shield wall of a car washing shop in front of a hill slope in the county seat of Gongshan Dulong-Nu Autonomous County collapsed at 7:30 a.m., crushing three workers to deaths and injuring another two, Xinhua quoted the county government as saying in a statement. The two injured have been rushed to a local hospital for emergency treatment, it said. The county police authorities earlier sent a 15-member rescue team to comb and clear the debris in search of the missing car washing workers.
