A motorist narrowly escaped injury this morning when a bridge collapsed in rural northern Iowa. The Mitchell County Engineering Department says the bridge is located about a mile north and east of Otranto on Dancer Avenue between 480th and 490th Streets.

Reports from the scene indicate it appears a car drove over the bridge when it collapsed. Nobody in the car was injured. Mitchell County authorities are continuing to investigate.
