巴尔的摩市撞桥事故后清理航道

All right, next we take you out onto the Patapsco River to see the remnants of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore.

As you may remember, last Tuesday in the early morning hours, a freight ship crashed into a pillar of the famed bridge, causing it to collapse.

Officials say that a group of six men working an overnight shift fixing potholes died when it collapsed.

Gloria Pazmino has more on what's next for the city of Baltimore.

So you can see we have been able to get extremely up close to the wreckage of the Dali and we're starting to really get an appreciation and a sense of just how massive this job is going to be.

You're looking at 4,000 tons of steel and concrete that are sitting on top of that bow.

That is going to be the most complicated part of this operation.

Moving all of that debris and taking it off the ship so that they can begin this cleanup process and then there's everything that's laying below the surface.

The part that we can't see.

There is more metal, more concrete, more debris in the water and that's going to be critical because they have to be able to make that safe for the divers whose mission it is to get back into the water and continue searching to attempt to recover the bodies of those who were lost.
