A Mexican navy training ship collided with New York’s Brooklyn Bridge while reversing on the East River, causing dramatic damage. The vessel, Cuauhtemoc, had 277 people on board when its tall masts struck the underside of the bridge. Video shows the ship flying a large Mexican flag as its masts snapped and it drifted toward the Brooklyn side. Naval cadets in white uniforms were seen hanging from the ship’s rigging as bystanders watched in shock.
