Rainbow Bridge was closed on one of year’s busiest days after vehicle reportedly en route to Kiss concert exploded on Wednesday

A car crash at the US-Canada border that killed two people, injured a border officer and jangled nerves ahead of the busy Thanksgiving holiday travel period is not believed to be terrorism, according to the FBI.

The agency had handed over its investigation to local officials, who are looking into why a luxury vehicle sped towards a border checkpoint, crossed a median, launched into the air, hit a building and exploded into a fireball.

CNN, citing FBI officials, reported that the car was a Bentley and the passengers were at least initially heading toward Toronto for a Kiss concert that evening, though it was cancelled hours before. The driver is believed to be from western New York state.

    Twitter assured me this was a reason to build a wall on the Canadian border? Why would it lie to me?
