Parents Angry After School Bridge Closed

LOVELAND, Colo. (AP) -- Parents are upset after a homeowners association put up a fence closing a bridge over a ditch used by children to get to an elementary school.

The closure means school children are being forced to go a half-mile around the bridge.

Parent Dani Voeller says the fence that has been used by children for more than a decade went up without notice.

According to the Loveland Reporter-Herald, the homeowners association could not be reached for comment.
