Emergency dispatchers prevent major disaster after bridge accident. Six missing people are presumed dead after the bridge collapsed on the US East Coast.

Dispatchers also tried to warn construction workers who were doing maintenance work on the bridge. Clean-up work alone could take months, and one of the most important ports on the U.S. East Coast is closed. Joe Biden's administration has announced help to rebuild the bridge, but it is not clear when it will be repaired or rebuilt..
