Six members of a roadwork crew plunged to their deaths on March 26 when a container ship lost power and crashed into one of the bridge’s supporting columns.
Salvage teams located the body of José Mynor López, 37, of Baltimore and contacted Maryland State Police, who responded along with Maryland Transportation Authority police and the FBI to recover the body.
They were all Latino immigrants who came to the United States from Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras. “With heavy hearts, today marks a significant milestone in our recovery efforts and providing closure to the loved ones of the six workers who lost their lives in this tragic event,” Maryland State Police Superintendent Roland Butler said in a statement. “As we mourn with the families, we honor the memory of José Mynor López, Alejandro Hernandez Fuentes, Dorlian Ronial Castillo Cabrera, Maynor Yasir Suazo-Sandoval, Carlos Daniel Hernandez Estrella, and Miguel Angel Luna Gonzalez.
