U-Haul truck hits historic Long Grove covered bridge

Another truck hit the historic covered bridge in north suburban Long Grove on Tuesday.

A U-Haul truck ended up wedged under the Robert Parker Coffin Bridge, which spans Buffalo Creek.

According to a Facebook group that tracks accidents at the covered bridge, it was the 73rd time it's been hit since 2018, despite signs warning about the bridge's low clearance.

A tow truck was able to pull the truck free after apparently deflating the U-Haul's tires.
