| Death toll may rise in bridge collapse *Unbelieveable...here's the latest I can fine: --- MINNEAPOLIS (AP) Alyssa Rocklitz never showed up for work. Kirk Foster and his girlfriend Krystle Webb are nowhere to be found. Their friends and family members were among more than 20 relatives gathered in a hotel ballroom early Thursday, waiting for word after an interstate bridge collapsed, killing at least seven and sending dozens of cars plummeting more than 60 feet into the Mississippi River. "I've never wanted to see my brother so much in my life," said Kristi Foster, who went to the center looking for Kirk. She hadn't had contact with her brother or his girlfriend since the previous night, and his cell phone was shut off. The eight-lane Interstate 35W bridge, a major Minneapolis artery that carries more than 100,000 vehicles a day, was in the midst of being repaired and two lanes in each direction were closed when the bridge buckled Wednesday while jammed with rush-hour traffic. Officials said seven people died, more than 60 were injured, and as many as 50 vehicles were in the river. The collapse did not appear to be terrorism-related. --- Full Story: MLive.com: Everything Michigan News Source: MLive.com: Everything Michigan
