Footage shows the railroad bridge across the Big Sioux River in North Sioux City caved in the centre and partially under water. The incident happened about an hour ago, around 11pm local time, with multiple roads now closed.
The construction, which connects Riverside and North Sioux City, came under the pressure of the rising waters. Sirens blared as the depth of the Big Sioux rose above historic levels, bursting out of its banks in some areas. Storms have battered the Midwestern region where the damage to infrastructure has been described as ‘staggering’.
