Reports of a large explosion from a car coming into the US from Canada on Rainbow Bridge:
From WaPo:
FBI agents rushed to respond Wednesday to a vehicle explosion on the Rainbow Bridge connecting Canada to Niagara Falls, N.Y. — an incident that comes on one of America’s busiest travel days and as security officials have expressed heightened concerns about possible attacks.
In a statement, the Buffalo office of the FBI said it is “investigating a vehicle explosion at the Rainbow Bridge” and “coordinating with our local, state and federal law enforcement partners in this investigation.”
Many details about the explosion were not immediately clear, and the FBI cautioned that the situation is “very fluid." The incident happened as the vehicle, traveling from Canada into the U.S., approached the border security screening area, according to a law enforcement official who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe the early stages of the investigation.
