Many people on Grand Island say they knew the couple and they spoke to Channel 2 on Thursday about the couple and their well-known ties to the community.
At a Thanksgiving morning gathering of members of the Niagara Sailing Club on Grand Island, following their morning 5K charity walk, their time together was tempered by the realization that two of their friends and supporters had been lost in that terrible crash on the Rainbow Bridge.
The shock set in for these Grand Island residents as word spread.
Scott Henderson, who is the club treasurer, told 2 On Your Side: “Not only were people talking, but then I made an announcement, and some people were just incredibly shocked. It’s just not only a younger couple like that, but so ingrained and influential in this community.”
One CBP worker also suffered light injuries from the incident and received hospital treatment, though they’ve since been released.
In a statement published on Thursday, the FBI’s Buffalo office said there was no indication the incident had been terrorism-related.
The office said: “FBI Buffalo has concluded our investigation at the scene of the Rainbow Bridge incident. A search of the scene revealed no explosive materials, and no terrorism nexus was identified. The matter has been turned over to the Niagara Falls Police Department as a traffic investigation.”
