2015-01-01来源:每日邮报

At least 35 people have been killed in a stampede during the New Year's celebrations in Shanghai, which may have been caused by the crowd rushing to grab fake money thrown from the balcony of a building.

上海新年跨年欢庆活动中,至少有35人死于踩踏事故,原因很有很可能是人群涌向建筑露台疯抢洒下的假钱。

Xinhua News Agency cited the Shanghai's government in saying that at least another 42 people have been injured and have been taken to Shanghai General Hospital.

中国官方媒体新华社引用上海政府的声明,声称只有还有42人受伤并已送往上海第一人民医院。

The deaths and injuries occurred in Chen Yi Square, in city's waterfront Bund area, which attracted 300,000 people last New Years Eve.

死伤事故发生于位于城市外滩的陈毅广场,去年的跨年吸引了30万人集聚到这里。
