THE NEXT DISASTER.

Just a couple hours ago a bridge in Minneapolis, Minnesota collapsed during rush hour, as anywhere from 50-100 cars were driving over it. So far, at least three people are dead and rescue efforts will be underway into the night, even as storm weather approaches.

This bridge is right next to my alma matter, the University of Minnesota, and carries a highway I've driven over numerous times. Literally hits close to home. Undoubtedly, this means a long investigation to find out why this happend, but there's no evidence of intentional harm or terrorism.
