BRASILIA, Brazil (AP) - Police in Brazil are updating the death toll from an early morning nightclub fire, but this time it is being lowered. Police say 232 bodies have been brought for identification to a gymnasium in the city of Santa Maria. That's down from 245. A doctor on the scene says most of the dead appeared to have suffocated as people stampeded toward the exits of the smoke-filled club.
