The Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore collapsed early Tuesday after a support column was hit by a large container ship that had lost power, sending vehicles and people into the Patapsco River, authorities said.

control demolition you can see flash at every joint government job to focus people attention on this brig woke up people termite explosion look closely after ship hits the brig
DAMN
But hey, at least they get to collect the insurance, right? I bet they already have the blueprints for the new bridge.
Finally able to see this and I’m saddened about the Men that lost their lives. Condolences to their families. That was hard to watch😢
Indians are idiots in all matters
Well the 6 workers come into America illegally… that I am sure of.. so now they are victims, heroes, or what ever else you want to call them… I am sure they will be looking for a big payout!! It is time to stop the illegals from coming across the border… I and I am sure others are tired of illegals claiming victim status when they should not even be here… CASA Maryland is portraying them as hard working for their families… they broke the law… deport them and their families and fine the company that hired them if they are illegal
Freaking Indians man
So scary i was waiting a show and thus came on
Encontraron el sueño americano 😢😢😢
Pdiddies cargo, traffic gone bad, or russian attack for their bridge usa attcked
Oh look, 3 letter agency vermin
США хотели уничтожить Крымский мост, а в итоге уничтожился мост в Балтиморе. Может США стоит заняться своей инфраструктурой? Наркоманией, мигрантами, бездомными. А не разжигать во всем мире распри и войны ради своей гегемонии? В Украине кстати уже хвастаются, что это их ГУР разрушили мост. Капитан корабля украинец. Это отместка США за плохое финансирование оружием.
Somthing about all this stinks…. our government hates us yall
Bridge fell apart like toothpicks. How old is the bridge?
That bridge was old. Baltimore got lucky! It was demolished FOR FREE!!!!!!!!
R.i.p. gentlemen
CBS is Fake News
That Baltimore mayor is a retard plain and simple.
Was the bridge name in honor of Francis Scott Key the person who written the poems, The star-spangled banner?
Hold those people on that ship accountable!!!!!
..Money does not replace life, but the families of those affected have to receive good compensation for life from the owner of the ship.
Wither an accident or something else, that harbor is an important one for freight and cruise lines.
Forget about the cruise lines, the freight coming into the harbor like, make a list beginning with sugar, and a zillion other things from Europe, and….automobiles from Europe that the harbor also receives.
That harbor will be blocked for a while until it’s cleared, and THAT, will definitely impact the economy in a negative way.
Having spent some time at sea myself I can say that a cargo ship, all large vessels really, have redundant systems that prevent a ship from loosing steerage control.
So, nobody should come to any conclusions until the “accident” is thoroughly investigated. Personally, I think it was a deliberate act of sabotage.

Funny
Dang Sabrina happy she wasn’t on the bridge 😅🫠
Can you tell us anything more about this tragic day Sabrina (😊)
Where are the equality women gang…, no were to be found there..?
DUDE THIS WAS A UKRAINE CAPTAIN THEY ARE OUR ENIMIES NOW WE SENT THEM SUPPLIES WHAT DO THEY DO FOR US WE ARE BECOMING WEAK THIS WAS NOT AN ACCIDENT
Bridge was built poorly
What about the cars that went over?
So sad 😞
As someone who lives like 10 minutes away from the key bridge this hurts me, im 13 and ive seen that bridge all my life since my father takes me to a fishing place right by it,its call "fort armsted*" ik i spelt the second word wrong but still..They found 2 bodies Yesterday out of 8, now not to long ago they found 2 other bodies..but as long they have been in the water the rest of the 6 have passed..so like i said they found 2 more bodies..(dead bodies) this pains me so much..i might be young but its just painful…
Prayers to those men and their families. We don’t know their names because they weren’t on paper..
All of the victims were from El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and mexico. Imagine that. If Biden wont do it the key bridge will
Was the driver still alive? What was on the crates? Where was it headed?
Would not surprise me to find out this was a false flag operation by the right-wing to discredit Biden. They will stop at nothing to overthrow the government and impose a dictatorship
I thought I saw emergency lights on the bridge it was the construction crew.
The Captain and pilot of the ship are local Americans . Crew has no mistakes. The ship list control due to power loss.
I doubt they will find anyone
I worked on tugs diesels engines as a 17 year old kid needed my mom to sign working papers.
Ship & barges way smaller were always escorted by a tug in close proximity to a busy water way
Dont worry Mayor Pete is on the case. He'll be thinking about doing something in a few weeks…
Why the heck did they not just drop anchor after first power failure? And then when power dis come back on, did they turn toward the support and not away from it?
This is what happened the day after.
There was a fire on the boat also, so the power went out, yet all my prayers sent to these families that got effected, and to the one person (how many Ik rn) who survived, also the boat deserved better, this was a traumatic event yet very tragic too, this happened when I was at my step dads house and it got me wondering after he said he was up at 1AM so, I got my answers and I was shocked, what’s bad about this for me is I have a fear/phobia of bridges and this gets me scared, so if you were here thank you for reading.
fly high, stay strong, we are with you 🕊️
