Very sad. How does a bridge in a major city collapse? I'm just asking. It seems to me that there should be a few things in life that we, Americans, can count on. Bridges not collapsing should be one of them.
Pray for the victims and the survivors.

From CNN.com:
At least six people were killed when an interstate bridge in Minneapolis, Minnesota, collapsed Wednesday evening, plunging cars and chunks of concrete into the Mississippi River below.
There were "lots" of injuries, the state Homeland Security and Emergency Management Department said.
Local hospitals put the number of people hurt at 37 so far.
The accident occurred shortly after 6 p.m. (7 p.m. ET). There were 50 to 100 cars on the bridge at the time, according to early estimates. Witnesses described a "dust cloud" as the bridge collapsed. (more...)
