Thanks for posting those images. Reports indicate perhaps 20 workers were on the bridge at the time.

From the scanner feed of Baltimore City Fire: Requesting all marine units stay out from under bridge. Dive teams are preparing to make a dive.

Looks like the ship’s lights went off, or were turned off about a minute before the hit...

Really, what agreement, about a buffer zone?
Sovereign countries are free to ally with anyone.
Russia broke the Budapest Memorandum to the START 1 Treaty, when it invaded, in 2014, during the weak, appeasing Obama/ biden term

I am shocked the local stations are not reporting this, they are in normal programming. With worldwide streaming what news director would think it is smart to return to soft morning wakeup news?

Good Lord, FoxNews has FINALLY woken up and is reporting on this, but their coverage is a joke. They have dimwit Ted Williams speculating with zero information, and he’s joined by some late night news babe who is way off base as well. I was watching Agenda Free News on YouTube earlier, and that guy is way more informed than they are just because he’s actually listening to the police scanner.
Williams for some weird reason believes that at 2:45 am there would have been many vehicles on the bridge. He’s just a dope. The real story as best we know right now is that there were around 20 construction workers on the bridge, but otherwise very few other vehicles. And the newsbabe was saying that the ship caught fire and sank, but there are photos from the last few minutes that show the ship sitting upright and apparently well above the water. Plus, the channel there is about 50 feet deep and this was a very large cargo ship, which would have been much taller the. 50 feet, so impossible to sink much anyway.
The fact the two of them, working for an allegedly “major” news channel, were far less informed that an independent guy on YouTube is a disgrace, but then are we really surprised?

Is our Secretary of Transportation on the scene?

A livestream showed the disaster unfolding, with the vessel plowing into a pile holding up the central part of the bridge. The road and steel arches immediately tumble into the water

SHIP LIGHTS GO OFF A FEW MINUTES AHEAD OF IMPACT
THEN BACK ON.
THEN SHIP LIGHTS GO BACK OFF.

To me it looks like it was past the bridge support and then it stopped and then it moved sideways slightly and there was a big splash at the base of the support, then the whole bridge just collapsed.

Bridge built 1972-1977.
A hit to that one area took out the entire bridge.

You can see the ship lost power, twice. Look at the smoke stack, blowing coal. I’ve been across this bridge a few times. Heading to Inner Harbor from Pennsylvania.
