Four young children are feared dead after their father told police he threw them from an Alabama bridge after an argument with his wife.

Divers searched the murky waters on Wednesday for the bodies of the youngsters, aged from four months to three, as Lam Luong, 37, was charged with four counts of capital murder.

Drug-user Luong had argued with his wife, Ngoc Phan, before taking the children, said Ms Phan's brother-in-law, Kam Phengsisomboun. He said the family initially feared Luong had traded the children to support his drug habit.
