Cargo Ship Dali's Troubled Journey from Baltimore to Norfolk

The cargo ship Dali left Baltimore for Virginia on Monday, following a severe accident three months ago that caused the collapse of the Francis Scott Key bridge, resulting in six deaths. The ship is en route to Norfolk for container removal and further repairs as investigations into the cause continue.

The cargo ship Dali embarked on its journey from Baltimore to Virginia this Monday, nearly three months after a catastrophic power failure led to a devastating crash into a supporting column of the Francis Scott Key bridge, causing its collapse and claiming six lives.

The 984-foot vessel began its move with the assistance of four tugboats at around 8:30 am. It is destined for Norfolk, Virginia, where remaining containers will be removed, and further repairs will be conducted.

Prior to leaving the Port of Baltimore on March 26, the ship experienced two power outages and ultimately lost power again, leading to the fatal collision. The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the electrical failures, while the FBI has launched a criminal probe. Last week, a federal judge allowed the crew members to return home but mandated their availability for depositions.
