BALTIMORE, March 26 (Reuters) – A massive #cargo #ship crippled by a loss of power smashed into a bridge while sailing out of Baltimore #Harbor early on Tuesday, sending vehicles and people into the river below and closing one of the busiest ports on the U.S. Eastern Seaboard.

Maryland Governor Wes Moore said at least six people were still missing hours after the #Singapore-flagged #container #vessel named Dali, bound for Sri Lanka, knocked down a large section of the #Francis #Scott #Key #Bridge about 1:30 a.m. (0530 GMT).
