Baltimore bridge collapse: Six missing victims presumed dead

Published



Six people are presumed dead after the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore collapsed.

At approximately 1:30 a.m., a 948-foot Singapore-flagged container ship called the Dali crashed into one of the bridge’s support columns, causing it to collapse. Six people are missing, though U.S. Coast Guard Rear Adm. Shannon Gilreath announced in a Tuesday news conference that they are presumed to be dead.
