TRENTON, N.J., Sept. 19 (UPI) -- Federal prosecutors have found no evidence New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie was directly involved in what became known as the "Bridgegate" scandal, a news report said.
WNBC-TV in New York, citing unnamed federal officials, reported Thursday that the investigation by the U.S. Attorney's Office in Newark, N.J., is close to ending its investigation. They said no evidence has surfaced that Christie ordered the lane closings that caused four days of traffic jams in Fort Lee, N.J., in September 2013 or knew about them before the fact.
