Terry moran on this again tonight. Reporter a new report tonight finding that the massive cargo ship that knocked down the key bridge in baltimore suffered two blackouts while undergoing maintenance, about ten hours before that deadly collapse. That preliminary report from the National Transportation safety board concludes that a mistake by a crew member on the Dali Cargo Ship caused the first blackout while the ship was docked in port, followed by a second power outage shortly after. The crew then switched the configuration of the electrical system. The dali, a 9yearold ship, left the port of baltimore hours later and experienced two more power failures, seen in this video. The main engine shutting down, the crew losing propulsion, control of the ship. And just moments before impact, Emergency Calls went out. The crew tried to drop anchor, but it was too late.
