Mystery Lingering From Causeway Accident

Thursday afternoon, a heavy-duty truck rolled off the causeway with its giant crane properly stowed.  Emergency crews used the truck to pull a similarly big dump truck from the bottom of Lake Pontchartrain.

Causeway Commission General Manager Carlton Dufrechou says crews had to make sure the response truck was properly situated on the bridge so the southbound span wouldn't be compromised from the extreme weight.
