Bridge accident snarls traffic

A minor traffic accident on the Interstate 94 bridge snarled westbound traffic for more than an hour Sunday evening.

Bulmaro Castanedo, 25, and two passengers from Minneapolis were not injured in the accident. Castanedo was cited for following too close.

The accident occurred around 5 p.m. Westbound traffic on and approaching the bridge was stop-and-go for more than an hour following the accident.
