- A tanker truck loaded with thousands of gallons of gasoline was involved in a fiery collision under an overpass of Interstate 95 in Norwalk, Connecticut, Thursday, one of the nation's busiest freeways. Officials said the damage was extensive and the bridge will need to be removed. No one was hurt, but the highway remains closed. Tony Aiello has the latest.

amazing how this always happens near a bridge and there is always a tanker truck filled gas or oil involved and a nearby water way. It's just amazing isn't it?
Not really.
Q: It's just amazing isn't it? A: only "amazing" to TEENS not to mature adults "who've seen this movie".
No.
Yep. Attack on the infrastuctutez but quietly so there is no anger
@@phillyphil1513And what other kinds of mature adult movies do you watch?
I-95 is 1924 miles long and all these tanker truck fires occur under bridges/overpasses?
ya it was all preplanned 😂
@@Brian-cb3ceI was merely pointing out the ODDS dip💩
As usual: a tanker truck burning under a bridge. So many identical accidents are happening it's... surprising..
It happened in Philly.
so many such cases!
Surprising??? There are no coincidences
Yet another accident...
Another bridge...
🤦🤦
People driving like maniacs doesn't help. I understand people have schedules, but there's still rules to follow.
I-95 CONN is a nightmare to begin with let alone this !
Kinda sus on how many these "crashes" have taken out bridges.
Yeah it's pretty clear that a message about burning bridges is being delivered. Change is inevitable.
In democrats states
How many? Two.
Suspect? None.
Accident? Two.
Comment? Troll.
Yeah Baltimore now this 🤨
@@Robbbed Fun fact: the richest states in the country are all Democrat states.
Dispatch: Fire? Can you deliver the load on time?
Lmao
No info on the driver of the car who set off this chain of events?
Some say it was Jesus. Others say it was Mickey Mouse. And yet still more people say it was Zorro. We're still not sure.
@@unknownuserbutnotabuserit was the one armed man
Thank you Jesus Christ that no one was injured✝️
Why does this keep on happening? It is like someone is attacking our nation's road and bridge instructor. And they're covering it up.
I think sadly soooo much more is coming. Many who want to do us harm have already entered and many more are coming. The riots are very telling of this and it’s not good.
Q: Why does this keep on happening? A: because unfortunately life is not a "fairy tale" so SH!T HAPPENS. also ref: the recent outbreak of multiple Tornadoes destroying the Midwest.
Take your medicine.
its a planned conspiracy by biden to shut down the american economy
@@JohnnyAngel8 i agree. When did they let the loony bins out
the tanker driver could have easily drove out from under the bridge by the looks of things but decided to stop right underneath it, smart driver
I was looking for your comment. I thought the same thing. The tractor was capable of doing so.
If you are driving a loaded fuel truck and see that your trailer is on fire, the only thing that would be on your mind is to run away.
I am wondering if the tanker that destroyed part of the highway in Pennsylvania last year was an accident. 🤔☮️🇺🇸
And I wonder if they found the driver of the car that caused it?
Did the idiot in the car survive ? It amazes me how one stupid person can cause such a big mess !
I do weekly deliveries to Norwalk from NJ.
This SUCKS!!!
Yes, they know this…
Wait be patient
This looks like it’s a coordinated event when you specifically have gas tankers exploding or burning underneath specific bridges
That car is definitely getting now where now!! That person needs to pay for the damages done.
0:38 that didn’t sound like a explosion
I can see how a car could have caused this accident. At 5:30 AM in the morning, I-95 is an open highway. Drivers treat I-95 and the Merritt Parkway like a racetrack. I hope the driver is charged and made to foot the bill.
With so much open interstate this happens under an overpass? This is happening all to much.
Prayers
The highway in Connecticut improved and an accident like this.
Turns out: Jet fuel really can melt steel beams!!!
There goes gas prices
REALLY🤯????
Where is Pete Buttielick
ruined bridge for sure
...as they say in the video.
Why would he park it underneath an overpass.
That looks intentional.
Norwalk we made it!
Isn't that right! 🤣
Open air burning of gasoline will not harm the steels strength. It will expand a bit retained , then bend lengthwise
bridge looked fine to me.
Why oh why can't they bypass redtape, call it bs and get to the problem source. This is becoming tooo obvious and its insulting to our intelligence!!
AGAIN! And on 95 Again.
You can't have children then let those children run wild.
I was shaking
And people are still there standing like idiots lol you do know once that Gasoline heats up it explodes
It looke like someone ran into the tanker. Yet, headline blame the tanker. "Tanker Crash'.
Headline: "Loaded Tanker Truck jack knifes, rolls over, and BURNS on RT. 7 bridge crossing over top the Norwalk River up in Ridgefield CT..." Date: July 12th 2005 (so almost 20 years ago at this point). naturally those who were just "born yesterday" will have NO KNOWLEDGE of this crash that occurred only a mere 15 miles away (to the North) from this accident, and it ALSO took out a bridge which then had to be replaced, btw CT DOT did an amazing job on the reconstruction...
SOURCE: in the mid 2000's i was actually working/traveling regularly between Danbury CT, Newtown CT, and Hartford CT, so "Pepperidge Farm Remembers". but see the problem happening with the "conspiracy kids" in the comments is simply that they are "baby young to the world" and LACK any sort of life experience (unfortunately even worse, their EGOS blind them from being able to recognize this).
Skipi g school and ended like that
I’m gone show my kids a picture of her
Any injuries or deaths in the accident?
They haven't mentioned any losses in other stories.
No escaping for you....
Has Homeland Security / FBI etc. brainstormed possible sleeper cell attacks whereby many individuals in a sleeper cell within the USA purposefully ignite tanker trucks nearly simultaneously underneath bridges and inside tunnels of multiple major highways in an effort to cause serious delays and traffic congestion (most importantly for logistical reasons such as trucking transport) in an effort to cripple regions economically?
I could see such an attack easily occurring without much effort on the part of a sleeper cell other than multiple individuals gaining access to trucking gasoline refueling trucks.
If they pulled off such an "attack" it could really destabilize the economics of an area if they hit enough major roadways and caused enough damage that the repairs would take days/weeks/months and or even longer as the numerosity of the damaged infrastructure would backlog the available crews.
It would be a more subtle and blunt "attack", but it would cause significant disruption IF it was organized and orchestrated very intelligently.
Just something to think about and I hope they have thought about it and any ways to potentially deal with such an coordinated event and ways to try and stave off such an event through background checks and surveillance of individuals involved in such trucking activities.
A friendly reminder this becomes a thing of the past if we move to electric vehicles. Electrons travel on transmission lines not trucks.
Ah yes...more black smoke...lots...for our delicate atmosphere.
Peace & Life Everlasting with Jesus ❤️
Pray for guidance and wait Patiently ❤️
Particulas de luz de amor al infinito yeshua❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
That was planned out ,
yEP i KNEW IT HAD TO BE CAUSED BY A CAR..
People drive like Aholes always cutting off trucks!
Inside the nfl?
Now imagine a child seeing that type of effect happening all around, including their house or the playground.
The hell are you talking about?
@@infinidominion I don't even think she knows.
@@infinidominion😂😂😂😂
Such a random comment... 😏
@@infinidominion😅
No matter what the truck driver is always at fault. Tanker hazmat drivers hauling chemical bombs earning peanuts on a dollar. Why do petroleum hazmat drivers earning 22 or $24 an hour? That's what a McDonald's manager earn. This is why I hope that all petroleum drivers boycott and protest stop hauling petroleum until the pay is minimum of $50 an hour.
Don't even start with y'all's conspiracy theories 🤦♂️
That bridge is old. That's why the government thought it needs to come down. Or, human error is to blame.
Nina Jankowicz, is that you??
womp womp
These big trucks need their own damn roads... im tired of this bs
You need a bike, please don’t use gas transportation.
@@Pinktulips9824 We don't use those things here in MURICA!
indeed. truckers get 95 stretch. four wheelers get the route 15 stretch that runs parallel to 95 where no truckers are allowed to get on.
Democrat state follow money who owns standard oil
"CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE, LORD GOD, I beg you to never force me to worship any false god and I ask you for forgiveness for my sins and immorality. Thank you for everything. Amen."
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Please pray this now, pray the words as you read them if you cannot look and remember them
Please worship the CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE, THE LORD GOD and try not to worry too much about the differences between the different religions and denominations, try to think about the similarities and the things they may have in common more than the differences. Daily prayer is a fundamental part that many people do not practice although it is encouraged
Babylon is falling! Repent and turn to the Lord for His yoke is easy.
All bridge attacks in the north east?....
Democrats states
Not one truck had a dash cam? Yet all these truckers on short vids constantly showing dash cam footage of stupid @$$#$ cutting off truckers... , ,but not one here... again a bridge of key importance. o.k.
💔🙏
