NANJING, May 7 (Xinhua) -- Three people have been killed after a tube fell and hit a car in an underground car park in east China's Jiangsu Province, local police said Monday.

The accident, at noon Sunday in the underground parking area of a Wanda shopping center in Changshu, a county-level city, left two adults in the front seats dead despite treatment. A child in the back seat was rescued and unharmed.
