Seven dead, more than 60 injured in Minneapolis bridge collapse

A busy highway bridge that spans the Mississippi River in Minneapolis collapsed during rush hour Wednesday, killing seven people, injuring more than 60, and sending dozens of cars, tons of concrete and twisted metal crashing into the water below.

Minneapolis Fire Chief Jim Clack said the death toll could rise. He said officials could see at least 50 vehicles in the water.

With a still undetermined number of vehicles that went into the river, unfortunately the toll is likely to go higher.

Kind of makes you think…how often do we drive over/under a bridge?
