One person has died and another
is missing after scaffolding collapsed on the Loop Parkway.
It happened as crews were working on the bridge today.
Six other people were injured when that scaffolding gave way.
One of the two people who fell into the water
was pulled out by rescue teams who performed CPR.
You can see the rescue effort right there.
That person, though, died at the hospital, we're told.
And once again, a second person is still missing at this hour.
We ran out, we heard helicopters flying over
and we just ran to the rooftop deck to see
and sure enough the Coast Guard
was circling around looking for anybody.
It's awful.
It's a tragedy, honestly.
They're just coming to work and something like this happened.
Another look at the situation from a distance right there.
Police have not released the names of anyone involved.
Emergency teams have been on scene for hours
and the northbound lanes of the loop remain closed.
We'll keep an eye on that situation as it continues to develop.
