A grand jury has indicted two companies and an individual for their roles in the 2024 collision between a cargo ship and Baltimore's Francis Scott Key Bridge.
The crash killed six construction workers and destroyed the bridge.
Today, the United States unsealed an indictment charging three defendants,
Synergy Marine Private Limited, Synergy Maritime Private Limited, and Radha Krishnan Karthik Nair with crimes related to the disaster,
including conspiracy, violations of the Ports and Waterways Safety Act, misconduct or neglect of ship officers resulting in death, and obstruction, among others.
The Justice Department said the collision caused billions of dollars in damage and significant environmental harm.
According to the indictment, the defendants allegedly relied on a flushing pump to supply fuel to two of
the Dali's four generators, but the pump was not designed to automatically restart following a blackout. The Dali's
generators were unable to operate without a fuel supply, leading to a second blackout.
The indictment alleges that if the Dali had used the appropriate fuel pumps, the vessel would have regained power in time to pass safely under the Key Bridge.
