A bridge connecting Galveston, Texas, with a small nearby island was shut down after a barge strike. The collision around 10 a.m. local time forced traffic to close in both directions on the road from Galveston to nearby Pelican Island, the city government said in a tweet. The incident caused an oil spill and crews are working to clean it up, the Associated Press reported.
