A tanker struck a river cruise on the Mississippi River near the Port of New Orleans Friday, partially submerging the passenger boat.
After more than 80 years, crews this week demolished a historic bridge that carried travelers across the Mississippi River between Missouri and downstate Illinois.
The helicopter ran into a powerline and crashed Thursday morning on the Mississippi River, officials said.
