FROM THE ARCHIVE: This story ran on Fox 9 just a few days after the I-35W bridge in Minneapolis collapsed. The incident killed 13 and injured 145 more, leaving a lasting impression on all who saw it.

In the days following the bridge's collapse, showing the range of emotions and the power of people's heartbreak became our job, telling the stories of everyday Minnesotans who found themselves caught on the brink of tragedy. 

In the wake of the awful incident, the Fox 9 photojournalists put together this story to remember the fallen and memorialize the moment, capturing a moment that, for everyone who was there, seems frozen in time.
