MEMPHIS, TN (WMC) - Federal Bureau of Investigation warned Memphis law enforcement agencies of an anonymous tip that threatens the I-40 bridge.
According to FBI spokesman Joel Siskovic, "There is no actionable intelligence at this point. The FBI takes any information like this seriously and we insure that we share it immediately with our local and state law enforcement partners."

Thread title may be just a tad dramatic

Fox says it's the I55 bridge. Somebody has the story wrong.

I'm from Memphis, and even I don't know the difference between the 55 and 40 bridge. I do know the difference between the Old and New Bridge though, and I'm guessing they'd go for the new one for more dramatic effect.

I shouldn't have, but I laughed pretty loudly.

55 is the old one tthat needs to be replaced, but to costly. They are hoping a big quake hits so they can get funding to replace it

Seems legit. I'm sure they could pull it off without anyone noticing.

You need to climb over the side rail, hang and look underneath. That's where the explosives will be. Take pictures.

The new bridge is the I40 bridge. The 55 bridge Is the old bridge. There is also a train bridge next to the I55 bridge.
And whoever said bombing Menphis would be low hanging fruit, in addition to major interstate bridges, the refinery, consider how many fed-ex packages will cross through the airport the next few days.

I cross the 55 bridge often. Other than being old and a tad narrow, nothing wrong with it.
