Two dead as Mexican Navy ship crashes into Brooklyn Bridge

Two people have been killed and at least 19 others injured after a tall Mexican Navy training sailing ship crashed into New York City's Brooklyn Bridge.Police said the Cuauhtémoc, with 277 people on board, lost power on Saturday as the captain was manoeuvring the vessel, forcing it to head for the bridge abutment on the Brooklyn side.Footage shows the ship's towering masts clip the bridge as it passed under the structure. Crew members were standing on the masts as they snapped and fell to the deck, authorities said.Brooklyn resident Nick Corso, who witnessed the accident, said the area erupted in panic. There was "lots of screaming, some sailors hanging from the masts," he told AFP.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams confirmed on X that two people died and two of the 19 injured were in critical condition.Brooklyn Bridge did not suffer any major damage and was reopened after a preliminary inspection.Police said they believed "mechanical issues" and a power cut had caused the collision.The New York Coast Guard said the Cuauhtémoc lost all three masts. All personnel on the ship had been accounted for and no-one had fallen in the water.
