Channel 5 reports that injuries are streaming into local hospitals (HCMC, Fairview Riverside and U of M Hospitals)...
Hospitals are calling this a Code Orange Disaster!
Isn’t Fairview and the University Hospital the same? Or are they just very near to each other? I think Fairview is on the St. Paul campus if I remember correctly.
My daughter and her husband work at Fairview. She called me right after this happened to assure me she was okay. She was on her way to her book club but thought she may be called into work.
My son must have heard about the bridge collapse while at work and tried to call her on her cell right after I got off the phone with her and could not get through. So if you are trying to contact family/friends in the area and do not receive an answer do not panic. The phone lines are just jammed I believe.
