(Reuters) -U.S. police said on Thursday they were still investigating a fiery crash on the bridge linking New York state and Ontario on Wednesday, which sparked a security scare that closed four U.S.-Canadian border crossings.

The Niagara Falls Police Department's Crash Management Unit has taken over the investigation of the incident, which was determined by U.S. federal agencies, including the FBI, not to have been a terrorist event.
