The motor vessel Delta Mariner sits in Kentucky Lake on Friday as a section of paved road and twisted steel truss, formerly part of the Eggner Ferry Bridge, lies on its front, in Aurora, Ky. The Delta Mariner struck the bridge Thursday night, causing a more than 300-foot span of the bridge to collapse. (AP Photo/The Paducah Sun, John Wright)
