BLACK ROCK, AR (KAIT) – Drivers have likely noticed a lot of construction recently beside the Black River bridge at Black Rock. Walter McMillan, the Arkansas Highway & Transportation Department's district
Some local drivers have feared that a bridge collapse like the one in Washington State this week could happen closer to home. People have been particularly fearful of the aging Black River Bridge that connects Black Rock and Portia on U.S. 63 in Lawrence County.
Thousands of bridges around the U.S. may be one freak accident or mistake away from collapse, even if the spans are deemed structurally sound.

HARDY, AR (KAIT) – A Sharp County woman died in a house fire Friday afternoon.
Hardy Police Chief Ernie Rose says the body of Patricia Arms, 67, was found in her home on East Cope Street. Firefighters arrived to find heavy black smoke coming from the doors, windows, and eaves of the house. A neighbor had been yelling and knocking on the doors of the home to get Arms' attention. She never responded.
Multiple firefighters, wearing protective equipment, went into the home, grabbed Arms' body in the living room and brought her to the front porch where she was pronounced dead.
Her body will be taken to the state medical examiner's office in Little Rock for autopsy. Chief Rose says they believe the fire started in the kitchen area around the center of the home.
One of the responders was cut on his arm and hand when he entered the home and was sent to a Pocahontas hospital for treatment. His injuries are said to be minor.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
