Father of two presumed dead after Maryland bridge collapse, family says
(CNN) - A 38-year-old father of two was one of eight people doing maintenance work on the Francis Scott Key Bridge when a ship collided with it, causing it to collapse on Tuesday.
Maynor Yassir Suazo Sandoval was originally from Honduras but had been living in the United States for the last 18 years. He was married with an 18-year-old son and 5-year-old daughter, according to his family.
The search for victims was suspended Tuesday night due to difficult weather conditions.
While Sandoval’s family says they are holding out hope he will be found alive, at this point, they just want his body recovered.
The other victims include two Guatemalan nationals, an El Salvador immigrant and Mexican nationals.
