Hit by a cargo ship. That's a catastrophic ****up for the captain. Goddamn that's got to be one of the scariest ways to go out having your car fall through the bridge into the water at night.

Watching some of the press conference. The ship captain had alerted authorities that the ship ran out of power.

FBI said no indication of a terrorist attack.

Looks like the ship had in issue with its propulsion system and went off course. Also, it was being piloted by a special local crew who are trained to avoid obstacles around the Baltimore port area.

The cargo ship that smashed into the Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore overnight was piloted by a specialized crew trained to avoid obstacles at ports, it has emerged.

The ship, a 948-foot-long DALI operated by Singaporean company Synergy Group, collided with the 1.2-mile bridge shortly after 1:26am as it departed the Port of Baltimore.

Maryland Transportation Secretary Paul Wiedefeld told a Tuesday morning press conference that it appears none of the 22 crewmembers were injured, as he revealed it was being steered by the specialist pilots.

'Pilots move ships in and out of the Port of Baltimore,' he said at a press conference, noting that the specialist pilots depart the ships as soon as they are in open water.

Officials were quick to rule out the catastrophe as intentional or an act of terrorism, and an early Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) report found the container ship 'lost propulsion' as it was leaving port.

'The vessel notified MD Department of Transportation (MDOT) that they had lost control of the vessel and an allision with the bridge was possible,' the report said. 'The vessel struck the bridge causing a complete collapse.'
