Old Swinging Bridge
In October this old bridge collapsed. It is at Heber Springs AR and had been closed to traffic in 1972, built in 1912, and could be visited as a walking bridge. The report sounds as if several visitors were on the bridge and some youths started swinging it and it suddenly collapsed and folks were dropped into the water below. Five died. This picture was loaned to me and has ended up belonging to the Historical Society.
I wish some news source would give us a brand new report about this tragedy. How about that, Searcy Citizen?
