Niagara Falls
 
Appears some sort of vehicle explosion at the border crossing (Rainbow Bridge)….very little known at this time, not that this is stopping endless speculation by the news. All northern border crossings now closed.

I'm thinking it wasn't a bomb,
just a car going really fast
into the bollards and went boom
from the collision and fuel on board.
Reports are that both passengers were killed

Not a good angle to see exactly what happened. Quite an explosion though.
But Joe, once they woke him up from his nappy time and pumped him up with his meds to function, will be all over this.
Meanwhile, the southern border is wide fricken open.

A shame we're not allowed to do the same at the Southern border crossings..

I just saw an eyewitness on the news say that he saw
the car going at least 80 mph and then it hit the concrete blocks
and flew up into the air at least 10 or 15 feet.

Doesn't sound like something they would do if the car was
loaded with explosives.

PS
In before the PARF

I just saw this on the news. Border crossing plus explosion. Also issues reported at other locations. Something is happening.

Let's hope your FBI does their job!

The wreckage pics look more like an explosion then a car crash....if they are real.

Looks like the front cradle on the right, maybe the engine tore away in the crash? Or is that the pillar?

mobile meth lab?

This was a bomb. A big one. Note the white thing laying on the ground. That could be a body that's been covered.

Another issue with Teslas?

sc_rufctr 11-22-2023 03:20 PM

This is getting really weird. The car was fully airborne!

Might be a murder/suicide where the driver did the ultimate and killed himself and his mate. Bizarre but that's what the local news is intimating. Drove straight into a concrete barrier at high speed, it will really make a mess.

stevej37 11-22-2023 04:55 PM

Was it an Audi?
sudden unintended acceleration for sure.

Brian 162 11-22-2023 05:12 PM

It was a husband and wife from the NY area. They were heading to a Kiss concert in Toronto that was cancelled.
Maybe a medical issue?
Car was a Bentley

Why does this feel more like Hazzard County than Niagara Falls?

Holy crap, that car flew a long way. That was no accident.
