Three people were killed and five other injured early Friday morning after four trucks they were travelling aboard plunged off a collapsed bridge in a northeast China city, police sources said.

The accident occurred at about 5:30 a.m. when part of a bridge collapsed in Harbin, capital of Heilongjiang Province.

The bridge, 100 meters long and 30 meters high, was put into use in November last year.
