A supposed eye witness told Shepard Smith on Fox News that he saw a crane drop a heavy object on one end of the bridge, causing it to collapse. He said the crane was then moved. This was not confirmed at news conferences which, as is usually the case in the initial stages of such events, gave very little information.

The heavy object should be near that end of the bridge, then.
That will be easy to tell from the people who are trained to analyze these kind of accidents.
Yeah, I watched the report by Shepard Smith earlier this afternoon and heard something about a crane, but I had to leave for some errands so I missed the entire briefing.
South Florida has a notoriously flexible attitude toward rules, with a high rate of construction accidents and defects being one manifestation.
Early eyewitness statements are notoriously unreliable.

False flag...Chinese steel also, likely...no accidents exist.
Yes, they were performing a test of the bridge when this happened.
“he saw a crane drop a heavy object on one end of the bridge”
There seem to be cameras everywhere nowadays. Hard to believe there isn’t/wasn’t one somewhere around there to capture this if it happened.
