A bridge in Baltimore, Md., has partially collapsed after being struck by a container ship Tuesday morning.
The Francis Scott Key Bridge crumbled after a vessel crashed into it, prompting the structure to dismantle into the Patapsco River, shortly before 1:30 a.m.
“All lanes closed both directions for incident on I-695 Key Bridge. Traffic is being detoured,” the Maryland Transportation Authority wrote on X.
Traffic was brought to a startling halt and drivers were being detoured.
This is a developing story. Check back for updates.
