Investigation Underway: Authorities Probe Rainbow Bridge Explosion

A car crashed in flames on the Rainbow Bridge, which connects New York state and Ontario at Niagara Falls, killing two people and prompting a security scare that closed four U.S.-Canadian border crossings. Authorities have ruled out terrorism as a cause, but the circumstances surrounding the crash remain unclear. The FBI found no evidence of explosives or a terrorism connection. The driver and a passenger died in the wreck, while a CBP officer sustained minor injuries. The incident occurred during heightened security concerns and holiday travel, leading to increased security measures at various locations. The Rainbow Bridge remained closed for investigation and safety assessment.
