The Rainbow Bridge is still closed as I write this. That strongly suggests to me that there’s more to the story. There are frequent crashes in that area because of the high traffic density but none have kept the bridge closed for more than an hour or so. Admittedly, there are few fatalities, and fewer still explosions, but the delay tells me it’s more than a typical car crash. The Iranian passport allegation supports that. People like to tell what they know so information always leaks out.
I should add that the Rainbow Bridge has been closed for 10.5 hours now. Unless there’s a potential structural issue with the bridge that needs to be investigated before it re-opens, the delay is highly unusual.
Good post Linda and I agree. That's why I will be following this for some time to come.
