Employees #1-7 were parked near the center of the bridge, while Contracted State Engineer #1 was near his vehicle just beyond the northwest entrance of the bridge. A 980 foot long by 157 foot wide by 40 foot tall container ship crashed into one of the bridge's piers. The bridge began to shake, and Contracted State Engineer #1 ran towards the northwest entrance of the bridge. The main span bridge then collapsed into the river.
