BALTIMORE (AP) — A road construction inspector narrowly escaped tragedy when the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore collapsed while he was supervising repairs. The collapse occurred after a massive container ship, the Dali, veered off course and crashed into one of the bridge's supporting columns in March.

Tragically, six members of the road crew working on filling potholes on the bridge deck lost their lives in the collapse, while another worker survived a fall from the bridge. The workers were caught off guard as they were on break and had no warning of the impending disaster.
