A heavy lift crane vessel is scheduled to arrive at the Port of Baltimore on Thursday to aid in the removal of debris from the collapsed Francis Scott Key bridge. This announcement was made by a senior White House adviser, emphasizing the federal government's commitment to providing additional resources for the recovery efforts.
Tom Perez, the director of intergovernmental affairs, expressed the sensitivity of the situation, acknowledging that the bridge collapse has tragically claimed the lives of four workers. Two bodies have already been recovered, with the remaining two workers presumed dead.
