Minneapolis Bridge Collapse
On Aug. 1 the I-35 bridge in Minneapolis crossing the Mississippi River collapsed during rush hour. Road crews had been constructing the bridge while a few lanes were closed. Dozens of cars dropped more than 60 ft into the river. So far 4 people are confirmed dead while about 79 are injured.The bridge was a steel arch bridge built in 1967.

What do you think?
This is so unfortunate. I can't believe something like this happened. But I think some people now will be a bit scared when they cross bridges. It seems like there has been alot more survivors than deaths.
