In India, about 20 Adventist students and two Walla Walla university missionaries were injured when a suspension bridge collapsed March 18.

About 70 people were on the bridge even though it can only support 30 people, reported several Indian news agencies.

Among those injured were a nursing graduate and a current nursing student from Walla Walla University. They have been in India as part of Walla Walla University's India Immunizations spring break mission trip.

The two missionaries were hospitalized along with about 20 students from Riverside Adventist Academy in Meghalaya, India.
