The collapse of the Baltimore bridge is at the heart of conspiracy theories. There is no credible evidence of a deliberate attack, but the conspiracy theory of an attack is omnipresent on social networks.
These fallacious allegations are based in particular on misappropriated images and erroneous analyses. Some claim that the trajectory of the cargo ship proves that the impact was intentional, but this theory has been dismantled by several specialists on social media. The exact causes of the accident linked to an electrical fault on the ship remain to be determined.
