A truck driver was rescued unharmed after her vehicle dangled over the Ohio River following a crash on the George Rogers Clark Memorial Bridge.
The rescue operation involved firefighters, police, and emergency services working together to safely retrieve the driver within 45 minutes.
The incident was caused by a vehicle crossing into oncoming traffic, leading to a collision that left the truck hanging off the bridge.
The bridge's structural integrity was not compromised, but it will require repairs, particularly to a pedestrian sidewalk.
Traffic was disrupted, and the bridge is expected to remain closed for some time as investigations and recovery efforts continue.
