Six killed as bamboo scaffolding collapses

Six people have been killed and four others injured after scaffolding collapsed at a construction site in southwest China.

The support frame came down between two buildings in Langzhong, Sichuan, while workers were pouring concrete.

Authorities say there were delays in excavating the site as it was too narrow for the rescue equipment to get in.

The scaffolding was made of bamboo.
