NIAGARA FALLS, N.Y. (AP) — A vehicle speeding toward a U.S.-Canada bridge from the American side crashed and exploded at a checkpoint in Niagara Falls on Wednesday, killing two people and prompting the closing of border crossings in the area, authorities said. New York Gov. Kathy Hochul said there was “no indication of a terrorist attack.”

Much remained unclear about the crash, which investigators were working to understand. Hochul said it wasn’t clear whether the driver was intentionally heading for the Rainbow Bridge across the Niagara River when the vehicle hit a median and flew into the air.

“ Based on what we know at this moment,” she said, “there is no sign of terrorist activity in this crash.”

It prompted the closing of four border crossings and raised concerns on both sides of the border. The White House said President Joe Biden was “closely following developments,” and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said officials were “taking this extraordinarily seriously.”

seriously.”

“This is obviously a very serious situation in Niagara Falls,” Trudeau said in Parliament before excusing himself from Question Period in the House of Commons to be briefed further.

The two deceased people were in the vehicle, a law enforcement official told The Associated Press. The official was not authorized to discuss details of the investigation publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity.

Aaron Ferguson, a spokesperson for the city of Niagara Falls, New York, said the vehicle was traveling at high speed from that city and crashed into the border station.

There weren’t any official Hamas or Islamic State license plates on the vehicle. Therefore, it was not official terrorism! /S.

Earlier reports said “Explosives” in the car.

Yes, just like in the movies, every car crash results gigantic explosions.

I’m calling it a Trudeau Biden false flag op while they replace citizens with slaves from South American.

Someone coming from the city of Niagara Falls NY, at very high speed, towards the bridge to Canada, then hit a barrier, car flew into the Customs inspection area and exploded.

apparantly the car was a Bentley, which adds an interesting twist.

She probably said 9/11 was due to the poor quality of flight instruction at the school that taught the terrorists. Flying into the towers was accidental and not related to terrorism.

Sounds like it may have been a couple of home boys that stole a car and ended up as fried chicken.

Yep, not terrorism, as that would be directed at something. This car was simply zipping along and had no clue as to where it would land. Looks like a scene out of a top-rate movie.

She has no business making a statement about something she’s clueless about.

Surprised to see that woman give out opinions and facts so quickly - not at all like that situation in Nashville where everything is hush hush.
