Police announced Tuesday that they had found the body of the sixth and final missing victim killed in the Baltimore Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse.
Unified Command rescue teams located Josรฉ Mynor Lรณpez, 37, of Baltimore, on Tuesday, according to authorities. Authorities have alerted his family.
“With heavy hearts, today marks a significant milestone in our recovery efforts and provides closure to the loved ones of the six workers who lost their lives in this tragic event,” said Col. Roland Butler, Jr., superintendent of the Maryland Department of State Police.
Lรณpez was one of six construction workers murdered during the event. The crew was patching potholes on a bridge span when the container ship Dali collided with one of the Key Bridge piers on March 26, causing it to collapse. Two other employees survived the tragedy.
Butler identified the five other individuals murdered in the collapse as Alejandro Hernandez Fuentes, Dorlian Ronial Castillo Cabrera, Maynor Yasir Suazo-Sandoval, Carlos Daniel Hernandez Estrella, and Miguel Angel Luna Gonzalez.
