    Eight people are reported missing in Brazil's city of Sao Paulo after a hole being dug for a new subway station collapsed leaving an enormous crater.

    Emergency services are trying to reach passengers from a minibus that fell into the 30m (100ft) deep hole when the ground gave way.

    Rescuers are trying to locate the vehicle, but fears of a further collapse are hampering rescue efforts.
