The ship that struck the Brooklyn Bridge on Saturday, the Cuauhtémoc, made many visits to Baltimore through the local nonprofit Sail Baltimore.

A Mexican tall ship slammed into the Brooklyn Bridge because it apparently lost its steering capacity thanks to mechanical failure, sources said — a tragedy eerily reminiscent of last year’s Baltimore span disaster.

Footage of a tall ship crashing into the Brooklyn Bridge shows the vessel hurtling into the span in reverse at full speed, suggesting the captain lost control of the engine.
