I just read it on a web site and am freaking out. I hope the best for all involved. This is horrifying.

Re: OT: Bridge Collapse In Minneapolis

according to the fbi and homeland security it was just a structural collapse and NOT terror related

Re: OT: Bridge Collapse In Minneapolis

I have heard the same and my brother in law is with homeland security. Seems to be related to the construction project not anything intentional.

Re: OT: Bridge Collapse In Minneapolis

I just got a response from my friend up there. Thankfully she and her family are fine but apparently it is quite awful there right now. Very near our office as well. I just hope most of the people are ok in the end. Things like this really shake me up no matter how far away. You just never know what could happen.
