No specific or credible information suggests “ties to terrorism” after a cargo ship collided with the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore Tuesday morning, according to Maryland Gov. Wes Moore.

Moore said that as many as 20 people and several vehicles had fallen into the Patapsco River, and a tractor-trailer was on the bridge when the cargo vessel hit a support pillar.
“The preliminary investigation points to an accident. We haven’t seen any credible evidence of a terrorist attack,” he told reporters during a news conference. The bridge was “fully up to code” and had no structural issues.
