Description
Officials said at least one person was killed when a fuel tanker truck rolled over and caught fire on the Gold Star Bridge, which connects Groton and New London along Interstate 95 in Connecticut, according to local media.
State police said the fire spread to buildings underneath the bridge.
This footage, captured from a passing vehicle, shows flames and dense smoke rising from the crash site.
The fire prompted the closure of all lanes over the bridge. Northbound lanes were reopened soon after, but southbound lanes remained closed as authorities responded, police said.
