Responders with the US Coast Guard San Jacinto River Fleet Unified Command used a drone to conduct initial damage assessments of the I-10 bridge that at least two barges struck Friday.
As the video shows, the two barges are lodged beneath the I-10 San Jacinto River Bridge, after nine barges broke away from their moorings at the San Jacinto River Fleet in Houston, on 20 September.
This occurred as a result of flooding from Storm Imelda in southeast Texas, last week.
There is currently no health threat to the public. There are no reports of pollution from the barges involved in this incident.
Pollution teams, to include air and water monitoring, remain on site in case the situation changes.
