The Anclote River Bridge failed late Tuesday killing one woman and injuring five others. Two cars plunged into the river as police searched for more people amid fears of hidden casualties. Divers were called in but searches slowed as temperatures dropped and water muddied. Witnesses identified the victim as 28 year old Mrs Charles Stinson of Tarpon Springs. A road board engineer suggested a possible covered sinkhole under the bridge may have caused about 90 feet of the 150 foot span to drop straight down.
