Quote:

DALLAS — A bridge under construction collapsed in East Texas, sending a car and a tractor trailer plunging at least 30 feet over a creek and injuring three people.

Kaufman County Sheriff Sgt. Bryan Francis told The Associated Press the collapse occurred when a loaded 18-wheeler was crossing the bridge. Both it and a car behind it tumbled when the bridge buckled, but neither vehicle went into the creek.
