Among the six workers believed deceased following the collapse of the Baltimore bridge, Tragic Bridge Collapse are a father of three and an aspiring business owner.

TFD – Explore the detailed coverage by TFD on the tragic bridge collapse involving construction workers, shedding light on the human stories and impact of this devastating incident.

They spent the night patching potholes on a well-known bridge that provided daily transportation for 30,000 Marylanders. However, on Tuesday morning, a 213 million-pound cargo ship struck the bridge, sending the construction workers plummeting into the extremely chilly water below.

Officials canceled the rescue effort and declared the workers to be considered dead after a day-long search. After several hours, it was nearly difficult to survive in the 50-foot-deep, freezing water, and it was extremely perilous for divers to maneuver among the murky, jagged debris.

The six victims’ families are currently grieving for their loved ones, whose remains have not yet been located. Here are a few tales from them:

a two-time parent who worked many jobs

According to his brother Martin Suazo, Maynor Yassir Suazo Sandoval, 38, was among the construction workers who disappeared following the fall of the bridge.

Martin Suazo stated that early on Tuesday morning, he received a call from family members in Baltimore informing him that his brother was missing.

According to his brother, Maynor Suazo came to the US in quest of a better life after leaving his native Santa Bárbara, Honduras. For the last eighteen years, Maynor had resided in the US. According to Martin Suazo, he was married and had two kids: an 18-year-old son and a 5-year-old daughter.

According to his brother, Sandoval founded a maintenance company in addition to working as a construction worker.

According to Suazo, a resident of Honduras, his family is appreciative of the assistance provided by the FBI, the Honduran Embassy in Washington, and the Maryland governor, who has pledged to use all of his resources to locate and retrieve the dead.

According to Suazo, his family is clinging to the chance that his brother would turn up alive. All they can do now, though, is hope his body heals so they can move on with their lives.
