Central American and Mexican families mourn the workers lost in the Baltimore bridge collapse

The workers lost in the Baltimore bridge collapse all hailed from Mexico or Central America before they settled in the Maryland area. Police managed to close bridge traffic seconds before a cargo ship slammed into one of the Francis Scott Key Bridge’s supports early Tuesday. The span fell into the frigid Patapsco River. There wasn’t time for a maintenance crew filling potholes on the span to get to safety. At least eight people fell into the water and two were rescued. Two bodies were recovered Wednesday. Four remained missing and were presumed dead. They hailed from Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras.
