Several people are still missing following the collapse of a major bridge in the US city of Baltimore.
Footage shows a Singapore-flagged cargo ship hitting a support beam of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Maryland before the truss collapsed into the river below.
The crew of the ship was able to alert authorities that it was losing power, allowing officials to stop the flow of traffic on the bridge.
Baltimore is one America's busiest ports - handling container ships from around the world.
