The Brecksville-Northfield High Level Bridge is a bridge in Greater Cleveland, Ohio, U.S., connecting Brecksville in Cuyahoga County with Sagamore Hills Township in Summit County. It is located in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park.

In 2012, five men were arrested and accused of planning to blow up the bridge.[5] The five were accused of planting what they thought were explosives and attempting to detonate it with a cell phone.[5] Following guilty pleas and one conviction, the men were sentenced between November 2012 and October 2013.[6][7]
