A major accident took place on Tuesday morning in Baltimore City Maryland state of America. The Singapore-flagged cargo ship Dali was en route to Colombo, the capital of Sri Lanka. Then it collided with the three-kilometer-long 'Francis Scott Key Bridge' near Baltimore and within a few seconds almost the entire bridge collapsed. The bridge collapsed and fell about 50 feet (15 m) into the cold water below. The accident occurred on Tuesday morning. Officials had said that the ship had faced electrical problems. At the same time, the crew was proactive and gave an alert call, due to which people moving towards the bridge were stopped.

Earlier in the day, federal officials at the White House said they were searching for the missing. Efforts are also being made to recover the body, assess the debris of the bridge, and shift the ship. Additionally, officials believe that six of the eight workers working on the bridge at the time of the accident are no longer alive. However, the search for these six people is going on. Two people have already been rescued from the water to safety.

 

National Transportation Safety Board Chairwoman Jennifer Homendy said that officials investigating the accident have also collected data from the ship and are preparing a timeline of the entire incident. At the same time, Governor Wes Moore has ordered the Maryland flag to be flown at half-mast. It will remain at half tilt until further notice.
