Special News Feature: Bill Doyle provides insight into the M/V Dali allision with the Francis Scott Key Bridge. While federal, state and local authorities are on the scene, there are growing speculations about the vessel’s condition and fuel supply.
The decades-old suspension bridge collapsed as the 984-foot container ship was transiting the harbor at nine knots when it struck the bridge. The ship is owned by Grace Ocean and is registered in Singapore and managed by the Maersk Synergy Marine Group.
Six people who were on the bridge are missing and presumed dead. Two others were rescued from the water. Authorities say the eight construction workers were repairing potholes on the bridge. There were 22 Indian nationals, including two pilots, aboard the cargo ship.
