Photo Journal: Bridge House of Sierra Leone (BBC)

During Sierra Leone's brutal 1991 - 2002 civil war, dozens of people were executed on the Aberdeen Road bridge in the seaside capital, Freetown.

...

One Sierra Leonean man, Mohamed Bangura, found an entrance to a hollow in the bridge during the heat of the fighting.



Wow.
