A Minneapolis bridge has joined other structures around the world in showing support for France after the deadly terrorist attacks in Paris.
The Minnesota Department of Transportation says the I-35W Bridge will be lit in the French national colors Sunday night. The bridge was also lit in those colors Saturday night.
Other structures worldwide have been lit up in the colors of the French flag - blue, white and red - in tribute to the Paris victims.
