The DOJ alleged that the cargo ship owners failed to maintain the ship, which led to it colliding with the Baltimore Key Bridge in Maryland.

In a lawsuit, the DOJ called the disaster that left six workers dead and the Francis Scott Key Bridge destroyed an "entirely avoidable tragedy."

The Department of Justice (DOJ) is pursuing a civil negligence case against the owner and operator of the Dali, the ship that rammed into Baltimore’s Francis Scott Key Bridge in March, causing millions in damages and temporarily shutting down one of the country’s busiest ports.
