Train derails on Arizona bridge that collapses, catches fire

A freight train derailed Wednesday as it traveled on a bridge that spans a man-made lake in a Phoenix suburb, setting the bridge ablaze and partially collapsing the structure, officials said. Tempe police said there was another derailment in the same area last month that slightly damaged the bridge, but it's unclear if that led to the latest incident. Union Pacific Railroad officials said 12 cars derailed on June 26 and the repairs were done within 48 hours.
