Diez personas perdieron la vida y otras 18 resultaron heridas tras el choque de al menos 28 vehículos en la vía I-75 de Gainesville al norte de Florida. Las autoridades habían clausurado la vía debido a la neblina pero la reabrieron pues consideraron que el mal tiempo había pasado. Debido al fuerte impacto, muchos vehículos se incendiaron, lo que perjudicó las labores de rescate por el humo y la niebla.

Antebellum Architecture, Gainesville, AL

running time:04:07 added by:winholler source: YouTube

In 1840 Gainesville was the third largest town in the state of Alabama, with a population of over 4000. It had one of the first banks in the state that issued currency and was a major port, shipping 6000 bales of cotton to Mobile each year by steamboats on the Tombigbee River. Many of the homes from Gainesville's "boom" days are still standing and though some have been restored, many, sadly, are falling into ruin. If you are in or near Sumter Co., AL, a visit to this little town of 220 is well worth the trip. It is truly a visit to the past...a fading, but still tangible memory of the antebellum South.
