ALL six people missing after a major bridge in the US city of Baltimore collapsed are presumed dead, authorities have said.The six disappeared when a container ship lost power and crashed into the bridge early on Tuesday, causing it to snap in several places and plunge into the river below.Maryland governor Wes Moore said with the ship barrelling towards the bridge at “a very, very rapid speed,” authorities had just enough time to stop cars from coming over the bridge.
A senior executive at the company that employed the workers said they were presumed dead due to the water’s depth and the length of time since the crash. “This was so completely unforeseen,” Pritzker said. “We don’t know what else to say. We take such great pride in safety, and we have cones and signs and lights and barriers and flaggers.”
“I know that a month ago, I was there, and I know what it feels like when the trailers pass,” Campos said.Brandon Scott, mayor of Baltimore, which is in the state of Maryland, said: “Never would you think that you would see, physically see, the Key Bridge tumble down like that.We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories.
