Well, Riot hasn't been seen for a while and Kevin Garnett got traded yesterday... :shock:

Seriously though, I hope this isn't too serious and I don't look like an idiot when I find out alot of people have died.

EDIT: Glen Taylors granddaughter was on the bridge. Definately Riot.

EDIT2: :? It looks way worse than I thought: http://media.myfoxtwincities.com/livest ... /index.htm

Yea, I was about to post this and it looks pretty bad. The bridge is like 64 feet in the air I think. I hope everyone is alright though. Alot of the calls are blocked through MN because so many people are calling in.

Doesn't look good in these early stages. Hopefully the number of injuries and deaths in minimal.

Wonder why the bridge collapsed. Just a coincidence or from a design floor etc.

It looks really bad. CNN already comfired 3 killed. And a school bus was on the bridge too. Poor kids...

One guy just reported that a policeman he talked to said it was 7 killed so far. I just hope it doesn't that much greater. They've also said that the bus was empty and appeared that the backdoor was open to it.

Glen Taylor is T-Wolves owner. Could be a message from a die hard fan, thats the worse, if someone actually blew it up. Horrible stuff...

From a doctor: the school bus did not get on the bridge...

Also, good thing Kq isn't around to "not take things personally, but just be[ing] a good human being" considering the comments in this thread...

Only four cars have been able to be searched cuz things are so unstable and it could be more dangerous to move cars around. 4 dead and i think 60 in hospitals, but the number of fatalities are expected to increase when they get to search inside the all the cars.

The bus had kids coming back from a water park and fortunately it didnt get close enough to fall, but just rest on a rail. One of the counselors opened the door in the back and helped the kids and other counselors get off the bus.

Too scary and sad
