Sully bridge in 5th arrondissement of Paris partly closed after being hit by a boat. Traffic has been closed to cars and the passage of boats is limited.

The Blue Diamond, a riverboat organizing dinner cruises, “damaged the central pass of the bridge,” the authorities said. Investigations are continuing “in order to more precisely assess the damage caused to the bridge” to allow normal navigation and traffic to resume, the Ile-de-France region said.
