Officials say the truck driver died and other people were injured in the crash on the Gold Star Bridge.
New London's mayor and fire chief told news outlets that the truck driver died in the crash and other people were taken to a hospital with serious injuries. Lamont said the injuries did not appear to be life-threatening.
"It's going to require us to do an extensive look at the steel structure to see when it will be safe to open it," he said. Seth Bottone, 48, was leaving work to head home from Groton as he does every day, when he saw the smoke and flames engulfing the bridge. Bottone snapped a video of the flames and was audibly in shock.
