Authorities are investigating after a Mexican Navy ship crashed into the Brooklyn Bridge on May 17, leaving two dead and 19 injured. The Cuauhtémoc, a sail training vessel for the Mexican Navy, lost power before striking the bridge connecting the Brooklyn and Manhattan boroughs around 8:20 p.m. ET, New York City Mayor Eric Adams said.
The Mexican Navy tall ship that struck the Brooklyn Bridge late Saturday night has set sail annually for the last four decades as the culmination of its cadets’ training in a transcontinental journey. The Cuauhtémoc first set sail in July 1982 across the Atlantic from Spain to Mexico.
