It's just a mind-blowing tragedy, like most people here I have taken that bridge thousands of times. I rode over the 10th ave. bridge, (right next to it), about 1/2 hour before this happened. Unbelievable...
I rode back down there when I heard the news about the bridge, it was a surreal scene w/ what seemed like hundreds of emergency vehicles, many towing rescue boats. There were just droves of cops and emergency personnel + thousands of people just milling around in a state of disbelief. It was a little like 9/11, though not as bad of course. Still, the biggest disaster ever in this state.
