The Illinois 89 bridge over the Illinois River in Spring Valley can be seen imploding in a video released by the Illinois Department of Transportation. Spring Valley is located about 100 miles west of Chicago.

According to IDOT, crews imploded two southern truss spans of the bridge Tuesday morning. IDOT officials say the remaining spans will be taken down in the coming weeks.

Illinois Attorney General Sues Trump Tower


"Trump Tower continues to take millions of gallons of water from the Chicago River every day without a permit and without any regard to how it may be impacting the river’s ecosystem," Madigan said in a news release. "I filed my lawsuit to make sure Trump Tower cannot continue violating the law."


It'll be interesting what, if anything, will come of this.
