BOSTON (AP) — A woman walking across a Boston drawbridge was crushed to death Tuesday after an operator raising the bridge for a boat to pass heard her screams and lowered it, accidentally trapping her between the two plates, investigators said.
The woman was crossing the bridge around noon when a bridge operator, not aware that she was on the bridge, began raising it for the boat in the Chelsea River. The woman grabbed hold of one of the sides of the bridge and the operator immediately lowered it when he heard her scream, but she became trapped in between the plates and suffered massive trauma, police said.
“I couldn’t see her, but I could hear her,” witness Waldina Garcia, 47, told the Boston Globe. “She was screaming and screaming and screaming.”
The woman, who wasn’t identified, was pronounced dead at the scene. Investigators called her death on the Meridian Street Bridge, which connects Chelsea and East Boston, an accident.

I blame cartoon violence.
There are no laws in Boston, only guidelines, and DemocRATs only observe those if they feel like it. This one paid the price.
Feel sorry for the bridgetender. He’ll have to sue to get his back pay.
When your number’s up God sometimes has to be inventive.
A very tragic reminder of the high cost of having incompetent people performing critical jobs.
You know, like in the Oval Office.
We have draw bridges here in California. A car load of foreigners went around the alarm arm on the 3-mile Island Bridge here, and met the river below. All died including small children. However, the woman in the story got the worse offering of the bridge.
A Darwin competitor for first place.
Its not the bridge operator who was stupid but another obummerite who the rules apply only to others.
