Baltimore Holds Ship Owners Liable for Deadly Bridge Collapse

The City of Baltimore has filed a lawsuit against the owners and managers of the cargo ship Dali, accusing them of negligence in the March 26th bridge collapse that killed six people. The city alleges that the vessel was unseaworthy when it departed port, citing a power problem experienced just hours before the incident. The owners and managers are seeking to limit their liability to $43.6 million, but the city argues that they should be held fully responsible for the disaster and its economic consequences. Investigations by the FBI and the National Transportation Safety Board are ongoing.
