Collapsed bridge in Minnesota~~Latest report: 7 dead, at least 60 injured, 20 missing.... And from Wizbang... wizbangblog.com Update VII: John Hinderaker who lives in Minneapolis writes this: This is a relatively new highway; I think the bridge is around 30 years old. There is construction underway on Highway 35. One hopes that didn't contribute to the disaster. This is certainly not an earthquake zone. This is the kind of disaster that just doesn't happen in the United States--a bridge spontaneously collapsing, apparently, into a river. It is hard to convey to those who don't live here the astonishment of this sort of catastrophe happening on our most traveled highway. Update VIII: Captain Ed, who also lives in Minneapolis, is following the story closely and has this: KSTP reports that the people on the bridge who were uninjured did not run off the bridge -- they went from car to car to look for the injured and give them assistance.
