A crane collapsed onto the Tappan Zee Bridge and shut down the span this afternoon.
The crane reportedly fell onto a car on the bridge around noon, South Nyack-Grand View police Chief Brent Newbury said. State police said all lanes on the bridge were closed in both directions.
Newbury said he expects "a traffic nightmare." Rockland County Executive Ed Day said county emergency services were on their way to the scene, and that some first responders from Westchester County were en route as well.
