MINNEAPOLIS - An interstate bridge jammed with rush-hour traffic suddenly broke into huge sections and collapsed into the Mississippi River Wednesday, pitching dozens of cars 60 feet into the water and killing at least seven people. Minneapolis Fire Chief Jim Clack said more than least 60 people were injured and the death toll could rise.
