RFK Bridge Closed by Abandoned UHaul Truck! Less than a week after the car bombing attempt in Times Square, the RFK bridge that connects Manhattan, Queens, and the Bronx is closed because of an abandoned UHaul with Arizona plates. The abandoned vehicle smells of gasoline, and Hazmat and Police are assessing the details.
Many in New York are concerned. After all, there was a bombing attempt this weekend. A Nissan Pathfinder with an amateurish bomb was found and taken away from the area before anything could happen.
Not much information is available about the RFK Bridge closure, but we will keep you informed of the situation.
