LONG GROVE, Ill. (WLS) -- The famed covered bridge in north suburban Long Grove has been damaged again in a crash just days after getting a new name.
A truck ignored warning signs and slammed into the bridge earlier Monday. The bridge suffered some cosmetic damage, but the steel structure remains solid.
