In the early hours of 26 March, The Dali, a massive 948ft cargo ship, slammed into the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, US.
Six men, all members of a road crew working on the bridge, were killed in the incident, while The Dali – still afloat – was stuck under huge chunks of shredded metal and concrete.
Eight months on, the investigation into the crash has provided a possible cause: a cable that shook loose, disrupting the ship’s power supply and causing an initial blackout.
After that, a lack of fuel pressure to the generators may have created power fluctuations that tripped breakers and caused the ship to go dark again, with no time to change course.
