Police had just 90 seconds to stop traffic on Baltimore bridge before it collapsed. The six workers missing in the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse in Baltimore were all immigrants from Central America.
They died while repairing potholes in the asphalt of the bridge, dedicated to the poet who wrote the United States national anthem, at 1:30 in the morning. Among them was Miguel Luna, 49, Salvadoran, father of six, who arrived in Maryland 19 years ago; His wife, María del Carmen Castellón, maintained hope until the last moment of seeing him emerge from the cold waters.
