An overcrowded balcony collapsed early yesterday inside a popular Sao Paulo nightclub, killing six people and injuring at least 117, police said.
The interior balcony at the Ladies First nightclub buckled under the weight of customers shortly before 2 a.m., crushing people below. "The balcony had many more people than the structure of the place would support," municipal guard Luciano da Zaparoli said.
Police said all of those killed were Brazilians. AP
