Brooklyn Bridge Bomb Scare

Yesterday afternoon, an abandoned U-Haul truck on the Brooklyn Bridge caused police to close the bridge. Worried that it might have been terrorist-related, the Brooklyn Bridge was shut down between 3PM and 5PM, until the police decided that the truck was most likely left by someone who got nervous when he/she realized the truck was higher than the bridge's height restriction. AUGH! Gothamist hopes that the NYPD figures out the knucklehead who rented the truck through U-Haul's records, because this was the most Bad Idea Jeans Bad Idea one could have while driving a truck. Abandoning it! Right before the Bridge! Fool!
