Watch: Update on Rainbow bridge vehicle explosion at crossing between Canada and U.S

Описание: A speeding vehicle on the American side of a U.S.-Canada border crossing near Niagara Falls blew up Wednesday, killing two people and causing federal authorities to shut down four border checkpoints amid international concern.

The two people found dead were inside the vehicle that exploded, a law enforcement official told the Associated Press.

The FBI's field office in Buffalo said in a statement that it is investigating the explosion on the Rainbow Bridge, which connects the two countries across the Niagara River.

"The FBI is coordinating with our local, state and federal law enforcement partners in this investigation," a statement posted on X reads. "As this situation is very fluid, that's all we can say at the time."
