Abstract

The FBI and Canadian authorities are investigating a vehicle explosion at the Rainbow Bridge, which connects the US to Canada at Niagara Falls, New York. The explosion occurred when a car accelerated at a high rate of speed, went airborne, and exploded on its way to a secondary search at the border crossing, resulting in the deaths of two men. The incident is being taken very seriously by both countries, with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau stating that they will remain engaged throughout the day. The origin of the explosion is currently unknown, and all border crossings in the Niagara region are closed to traffic. [Extracted from the article]
