A cargo ship, Dali, collided with the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, carrying hazardous materials including corrosives, flammables, paper products, machinery, scrap metal, and lumber. The NTSB reported that 56 containers out of 4,700 held 764 tons of hazardous materials, some of which leaked into the river, creating a sheen on the water surface. The incident may lead to weeks of delays at the harbor.
