A sailing vessel operated by the Mexican Navy struck the Brooklyn Bridge on Saturday evening, resulting in at least 34 injuries, including four critical cases, according to New York City officials.
The incident occurred just before 8:30 p.m., when the ARM Cuauhtémoc, a historic tall ship used for naval training, collided with the base of the bridge during a maneuver along the East River.
A senior official told that approximately 277 individuals were aboard the Cuauhtémoc at the time of the crash.
Preliminary reports indicate that around 30 suffered non-life-threatening injuries, while four others were critically hurt.
