COLUMBUS -- University police are looking into what may have caused a bridge to catch fire on OSU campus Tuesday night.
Pictures sent to ABC6/FOX28 from an OSU freshman living in Morill Tower shows flames on the bridge that crosses the Olentangy River.
Cell phone video from another OSU freshman sent to our station shows a dark figure running away from the fire. It's still unclear what that person was doing so close to the scene.
According to reports one male OSU student was taken to the Wexner Medical Center at The Ohio State University where he's being treated for minor injuries.
The names of the people involved have not yet been released.
Aside from torched debris, the bridge was not damage and later reopened to foot and bike traffic.
