Abstract

The FBI has launched a criminal investigation into the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, which resulted in the deaths of six workers. The investigation is focusing on whether the crew of the containership Dali failed to report any issues with the vessel before it departed from port. The National Transportation Safety Board is also conducting an investigation into the incident. The bridge collapse has had significant economic consequences, as it has closed off a major port and affected thousands of dockworkers. The city of Baltimore is taking legal action against the owner, charterer, manager/operator, and manufacturer of the Dali in an effort to mitigate the impact of the collapse on its residents.
