Tuesday, February 16, 2010 PORT-AU-PRINCE: A mudslide in northern Haiti on Monday caused the partial collapse of a school, killing four children and injuring two others, a Haitian civil protection official said.

An investigation was launched into the cause of the crash, which happened at the height of the morning rush, with suspicions of driver error as well as a lack of safety equipment on one of the trains.

The high-speed crash, one of the worst rail accidents in Belgi...
