One person is dead after a bridge collapsed in the Atlanta Botanical Garden; it was a pedestrian bridge, and 18 other people were injured.
The workers were all atop the "canopy walk," an elevated pathway that reaches up to 40 feet high, when it gave way around 9 a.m., Atlanta fire officials said. Joggers, dog walkers and others were in adjacent Piedmont Park north of downtown, but no visitors were in the area of the collapse, authorities said.
