Bridge Collapse Drops 100 Foot Span on Car in Fort Worth
A 100 foot section of the Campus Drive overpass on Interstate 20 collapsed after a runaway water truck trailer struck a bridge support. The car beneath was crushed but the driver, 25 year old Eldora Caffey of Fort Worth, escaped with minor injuries and was hospitalized. Westbound lanes were closed, traffic diverted, and officials estimated a repair cost near $500,000 with possible eight to 42 months before reopening.

Two injured in Frederick County traffic crash involving tractors
A crash on Route 17 near the Frederick County line left two people injured. Adam Kreeger 23 of Carlinville Illinois drove a tractor trailer into another tractor trailer driven by Vernon A. Greene Jr. of Baltimore. Kreeger sustained head and chest injuries and was hospitalized. Greene was treated and released. Kreeger faces future charges as police investigate. Separately, Alfred Patterson 17, acquitted of a 1982 murder, was sentenced to 60 years for armed robbery in Baltimore, after a second trial found him guilty on three robbery counts. His target was Schisler, a New Windsor eggs and produce seller, and his family had urged retirement due to prior robberies.

White couple fights to adopt black child in Maryland
A childless white couple in Aberdeen fight for the right to adopt a mentally retarded black boy in foster care since birth. The state insists an appropriate black family be sought under interracial adoption policy before the Haas family or others can be considered, and no black family has shown interest. The Hagses hired an attorney to press their case as the county searches for a suitable race matched home.
