When a massive cargo ship called the Dali lost power in the Port of Baltimore, crews scrambled to control the ship. They sent out a mayday signal to evacuate The Baltimore Francis Scott Key Bridge lying ahead, but it was too late. In less than a minute, the midsection of the 1.6-mile-long truss bridge plunged into the cold river below. None of the ship’s crew members were injured.
