Bridge Collapse, Prayers Needed*E

There was a bridge collapse on HWY 35W in Minneapolis, which is about 30 minutes or so from where I live. It’s pretty bad, lotsa traffic through that area. It happened at about 6:05 this evening, one person confirmed dead, at least 35 injured right now. We need all your prayers for all the people that were on that bridge and their families. It’s a very sad event, and we’re all hoping that the one fatality is the only one that occurred. There are 20 construction workers unaccounted for, so hope that they are all found and are okay!

Here’s your update for today. Now they have 7 confirmed dead and at least 37 injured and still being treated in the hospital. There are about 50 cars trapped UNDERNEATH the bridge in the water, and they aren’t expecting anymore survivors. They are sending divers down to recovery bodies. Many loved ones are still missing, so please pray for those families that their loved ones are found!
