A bridge carrying rush-hour traffic over Interstate 35W in Minneapolis is shown after it collapsed, sending numerous vehicles into the Mississippi River early Wednesday evening, Aug. 1. The collapse of the busy highway bridge that spans the Mississippi River just northeast of Minneapolis sent dozens of cars, tons of concrete and twisted metal crashing into the water.
