Several crew members of a ship that collided with a bridge in Baltimore almost two years ago are still being held in the US by federal authorities despite the fact that no criminal charges have been brought against them.
In the early hours of 26 March 2024, the MV Dali departed the port of Baltimore bound for Sri Lanka. While navigating the Fort McHenry channel, the 1,000ft-long Singapore-flagged cargo vessel lost power before striking the bridge. The impact resulted in the deaths of six people who were working on the bridge at the time.

“Remember folks, if we aren’t the repair shop for you and you are unhappy with the quality of work we do it is because you chose other repair shops in town in the past and forced us to become this bad so it is YOUR fault if our service fails to satisfy your basic needs!”
