*Partial Reopening of 2nd Street Bridge After 4-Vehicle Crash*
The 2nd Street Bridge is set to partially reopen on Saturday after a dramatic 4-vehicle crash on Friday, March 1, left a truck teetering off the edge of the bridge ¹.
The incident occurred when an electric car suddenly stalled on the bridge, causing a chain reaction crash involving two cars and a semi-truck ¹. The truck crashed through the bridge’s barrier and left the driver dangling off the side ¹.
Fortunately, the driver was rescued, but one person was critically injured and remains in the hospital ¹. The cause of the electric car’s stall is still unknown, but the vehicle’s owner, Glenna Hess, reported fluctuations in the electrical system before the incident ¹.
The partial reopening of the bridge on Saturday will likely bring relief to commuters, but the investigation into the crash is ongoing ¹.
