Federal safety officials revealed on Wednesday that the pilot of the cargo freighter, which caused the collapse of a highway bridge into Baltimore Harbor, had radioed for tugboat assistance and reported a power loss just minutes before the incident. The National Transportation Safety Board highlighted that the Francis Scott Key Bridge, a vital traffic artery constructed in 1976, lacked structural redundancies commonly found in newer bridges, rendering it more susceptible to catastrophic collapse.
