channel 5 news

KARE 11

Thanks for the quick reply.

Where exactly is this bridge?

Even though I don’t know where it is, I still find it very interesting. Thanks

Prayers out to all of the people and families in this tragic accident. It looks horrible

Just saw it on the news. It’s unbelievable. Pray for all those involved, incl the rescue workers.

FOXNews has it live for anyone outside of the cities. It’s an absolute nightmare.

My families prayers go out to all the families affected by this.

CNN has it too.

This is terrible. They are certainly in my prayers.
Thanks, Bill

Let’s pile on the prayers IDA!

I just made a paniced call to the wife. She was in the area but thank God she wasn’t near the bridge. Hopefully it isn’t as bad as the pictures on TV. I have a feeling not all stories are going to turn out good tonight. My prayers go out to all involved and to the people that have to respond to this disaster.

Was on that bridge about 4 times yesterday. Every time I go over it it is packed with cars and workers as of late. From just the few vehicles that are left on it I hate to think of what went in the water. Hopefully there was a chance to get most of the rest off.

That is a terrible tragedy! My prayers go out to those involved and those professionals in the rescue vehicles/boats!

This is crazy! My friend lives in the blue duplex they keep showing next to the bridge. I called him to make sure they were OK and he was so shaken that he couldn’t even talk. A prayer is being said for all those involved.

How in this day and age could this happen ? It is so sad , my prayers are out to all .

Prayers going out to all families in this accident. Just hope to all soon enough.

Very Very Very Sad , prayers go out to all, what a tragedy!!

Alvin, you made it by 13 minutes! Reported to happen at 6:05.

It’s so unreal sitting here watching this. May god bless all the viticms and the rescue crews!!

My home phone and my wife’s cell is ringing none stop to make sure that she is OK, she is one that bridge right around that time every day. Glad she picked you the kids from daycare today.
I was on that bridge yesterday also
I can not think or imagine what traffic will be like for a long time in that area. They say about 140,000 people travel on that bridge a day.
For those that do not know that is the bridge right by the Metro Dome. It was built in 1967.
How many people were going to the Twins game or just trying to get home after work?
I am sick to my stomach just watching the coverage.
I will be praying for all involved in this tragedy.

One more thing, I hope that they do not release the traffic camera footage.

This is absolutely horrible. I have been watching the coverage on fox news. Prayers go out to all involved

I’m sure there are injuries but I do hope there are no fatalities. I’ve got that same sick feeling in my stomach as well. How can something that large fail in such a big way?

My heart sank when I saw this. Thoughts and prayers for everyone involved.

This is terrible. Unbelievable.

I was right on my phone calling Dave… he and his cousin are out fishing! But they’re on the Minnesota River, thank goodness.

Channel 5 just reported 3 deaths so far.

HCMC is on right now saying they have had like 28 injuries and 1 death.

I was worried when I saw the school bus. I guess there were 60 kids on it, but none were seriously injured.

reports of at least one dead prayers are sent

I live 4 block away from the bridge. Thank god I wasn’t on it. I got off work at 3pm and was across it by 330pm. Glad I didn’t go down to my spot after work though. I fish the honk your horn spot. Rode bike down there though. Not pretty wish I had a digital camera. Everyone keep the families in their prayers!
