Hour before Biden’s visit to press Infra Bill, the bridge collapsed in Pittsburgh

Pittsburgh: Before President Joe Biden is to visit the city, a two-way bridge collapses in Pittsburgh on Friday, encouraging rescuers to be almost 150 feet (46 m) and others to form a human chain to save many people from dangling buses.

There were 10 small injuries with three taken to hospital but there were no fatalities, the authorities said.
The police reported the Forbes Avenue range over Fern Hollow Creek on Frick Park fell around 6 in the morning.
Photos from the scene showed a commuter bus upright in the collapsed bridge.
City officials said the collapse caused gas leaks but gas since it was turned off.
Bureau Pittsburgh Head of the Darryl Jones fire said three or four vehicles were involved in collapse.
None of the injuries that threaten the lives, said Jones.
Authorities tell motorists to avoid the area.
In a statement, the White House said Biden would continue the planned trip to Pittsburgh.
“ Our team is related to the state and local officials on the ground when they continue to gather information about the causes of collapse, the statement said.
“The President thanked the first respondent who rushed to help the driver on the bridge at the time.
