@ABC @GioBenitez Putin probably did it. The USA tried to destroy Russia's Crimean bridge, sunk lots of Russian warships, killed so many Russian speaking people just to wear down a capitalist , competitive trading partner. USA eventually got a taste of its own medicine.

BREAKING: Police audio has been released that captures dispatchers discussing with officers the approaching container ship and the subsequent collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore. In the audio, you can hear an officer trying his best to get the traffic stopped going over the bridge as the ship approached. Thanks to some heroic officers, some of the traffic was cut off, but unfortunately some cars and workers still remained on the bridge when it collapsed.
