A VIOLENT New Year weather system caused the deaths of four people in Seville, in Spain after a bus shelter collapsed on top of them. Winds gusting at up to 50mph sent chunks of wall tumbling from a disused building, police said.

The debris crushed the shelter, killing four people and injuring at least one. Elsewhere in Seville and the surrounding province, the storm knocked down trees and triggered electrical blackouts.
