Mexican navy ship crashes into Brooklyn Bridge killing two crew members
In a post on X, New York City mayor Eric Adams stated that preliminary inspection confirmed the bridge sustained no damage and has been reopened to the public.
A large Mexican navy tall ship on an international goodwill visit to New York struck the Brooklyn Bridge late Saturday, snapping all three of its towering masts in a dramatic crash that left two crew members dead and at least 19 injured—including two in critical condition.
While the exact cause of the collision is under investigation, a few reports have suggested that the ship faced a power outage causing it to veer off its path. In a post on social media platform X, New York City mayor Eric Adams stated that preliminary inspection confirmed the bridge sustained no damage and has since reopened to the public.
