At least 6 reported dead in crush at African Cup soccer game
YAOUNDE, Cameroon (AP) — At least six people died in a crush outside a stadium hosting a game at Africa's top soccer tournament in Cameroon on Monday, a local government official said, realizing fears over the capacity of the Central African country to stage the continent's biggest sports event.

“We are not in position to give you the total number of casualties,” he said.
