"Barge Collides with Bridge, Forcing Oklahoma Highway Closure"

TL;DR Summary
A barge struck a bridge over the Arkansas River in Oklahoma, temporarily shutting down a highway, just days after a tragic collision in Baltimore where a cargo ship hit the Francis Scott Key bridge. The Oklahoma bridge was later inspected and reopened, with no reported injuries. In Baltimore, recovery and salvage operations are underway, with four construction workers missing and presumed dead. Enormous cranes have arrived to clear the wreckage, and search missions will resume once conditions improve.
