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.

GWINNETT COUNTY, GA (CBS ATLANTA) -
It's an alleged inside job that has ruffled some feathers - two storage facility employees accused of stealing $65,000 in frozen Tyson chicken wings.
Gwinnett County police arrested Renaldo Jackson and Dewayne Patterson. Both are listed as employees at Nordic Cold Storage, where the wings were stolen.
A woman who claimed to be Patterson's mother told CBS Atlanta she believes he is innocent.
"He's a really law-abiding person," the woman said. "That's why I don't understand that at all."
So, exactly how much chicken was stolen? One five-pound bag of frozen Tyson's chicken wings sells for about $12.50. If you do the math, that's about 26,000 pounds of wings.
Shopper James Collins theorizes that the timing of the heist is perfect, as a nationwide chicken shortage drives up the price of wings.
"$65,000 in chicken wings? Sounds like a well-planned heist with the Super Bowl coming up," Collins said. Copyright 2013 WGCL-TV (Meredith Corporation). All rights reserved.
