Authorities said Friday they have recovered the body of another one of the construction workers presumed to have been killed in the Baltimore bridge collapse.
Dive teams recovered the body of 38-year-old Maynor Suazo Sandoval at about 10:30 a.m. Friday, according to Unified Command, the group of agencies managing the response to the Key Bridge collapse.
His brother, Carlos Alexis Suazo Sandoval, said family members received the news from officials shortly thereafter. “That was the #1 goal,” he wrote in a WhatsApp message in Spanish. “Thank God.”
Authorities said previously that six construction workers who had been repairing potholes on the Key Bridge — including Suazo Sandoval — were believed to have fallen to their deaths after a ship crashed into the span last week, collapsing it. The bodies of two of the workers — Alejandro Hernández Fuentes, 35, of Baltimore, and Dorlian Ronial Castillo Cabrera, 26, of Dundalk, Md. — had already been recovered last week, and authorities were searching for four more.
