I-95 collapse to send ripple effect through East Coast: ‘This is not just a commuter challenge’
an elevated section collapsed over the weekend following damage caused by a tanker truck crash. LiveNOW from FOX spoke with Mark Fusetti, a retired police sergeant, who happened to be driving on the fiery section of I-95 Sunday morning moments before the collapse. Fusetti saw dark, black smoke begin to consume the roadway ahead of him and assumed it was coming from a car fire down below. "I did see an opening (in the smoke) where I could drive through and look safely, which I did. And as I drove through, you felt this major bump on the road," he described.He shared video with LiveNOW from the scene, where Fusetti’s vehicle can be seen going through a clearing in the smoke. "After I go through, I look in my rearview mirror and I see that's where all the cars stopped and that’s where I'm told, unofficially, where the highway collapsed right after."Fusetti said that area of I-95 was already under construction, so he didn’t think much when going over the big bump, but that he was in disbelief when he heard what had happened. "Is this normal?"RELATED: Philadelphia I-95 collapse: What you need to know about the damaged highwayIn this handout photo provided by the City of Philadelphia Office of Emergency Management, smoke rises from a collapsed section of the I-95 highway on June 11, 2023 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
