Lincoln Fire and Rescue was on scene at an early morning fire at a railroad bridge in west Lincoln.
LFR responded at 3:45 a.m. Monday to the railroad bridge over Salt Creek by Westgate and Sun Valley boulevards near Pinnacle Bank Arena. Our reporter on the scene could see the bridge engulfed in flames and heavy smoke rising from the area miles away.
The bridge eventually collapsed just before 5:30 a.m. LFR spokesperson, MJ Lierman, said the bridge will be a total loss, and they are working with railroad officials and fire investigators at this time.
While no cause has been determined, our station is working to get more details, while emergency response works the scene.
