Biden visits site of disaster as body of Maynor Yassir Suazo Sandoval, one of six workers killed, is delivered to family
A third body has been recovered after six construction workers were killed when a cargo ship hit the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, authorities said on Friday. The body of Maynor Yassir Suazo Sandoval, 38, was found just hours before Joe Biden arrived to get a first-hand look at efforts to clear away the debris.
The Baltimore mayor, Brandon Scott, expressed his gratitude to the first responders while sending condolences to the workers’ families. “This evening the Unified Command announced that divers were able to bring Maynor Yassir Suazo Sandoval, one of the remaining missing workers, home to his family,” read a statement from Scott. “While I take solace in knowing this brings us one step closer to closure, my heart continues to be with all the families still waiting anxiously for their loved ones.”
