A fourth body has been found at the site of the Key Bridge collapse in Baltimore.
At the family’s request, the victim’s name has not yet been released.
Video captured the moment the huge structure fell into the river, killing six men, all road workers who were on the bridge at the time.
The body of this fourth victim was found during a search Sunday when Unified Command rescue teams located what they believed to be one of the missing construction vehicles.
After notifying the Maryland Department of State Police, the FBI, and the Maryland Transportation Authority Police, the victim was found still trapped inside the vehicle.
Investigators also met with the Baltimore County Mobile Crisis Team and the Governor’s Office of Immigration Affairs to notify family members.

A memorial for fallen Key Bridge workers is growing a few miles from the Key Bridge.
“As we mourn the lives lost and continue the recovery operation, we recognize that each missing person is someone’s beloved friend or family member,” said Col. Roland L. Butler, Jr. ., Superintendent of Police, Maryland Department of State.
“With all of our allied law enforcement partners, we are committed to exhausting the physical and technical aspects of their training while deploying every available resource possible.”
On Monday, the FBI launched a criminal investigation into the collapse that claimed the lives of construction workers.
Agents will investigate whether the Dali’s 22-person crew knew it had serious systemic problems before leaving Maryland port on March 26.
Some were seen arriving at the ship today to speak to the crew, who remain on board.
Meanwhile, Baltimore’s mayor said the city is bringing in outside firms to “hold accountable all entities responsible for the Key Bridge tragedy.”
He hired two law firms to sue Grace Ocean Private, the Singapore-based company that owns the ship.

Agents were seen arriving at the cargo ship Monday morning to conduct interviews.
It comes just three weeks after shocking images went around the world showing the 110,000-ton cargo ship ramming into the Francis Scott Key Bridge.
The enormous crash caused him to crash onto the ship and into the frozen river, sending all six construction workers to their deaths.
The criminal investigation will be overseen by the U.S. attorney’s office in Maryland and will focus on what the 22 crew members knew about the ship’s problems.
Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott said, “This unthinkable tragedy has torn Marylanders from their loved ones and endangered the livelihoods of thousands of Baltimoreans who depend on the Port of Baltimore.
“Part of this work must be seeking recourse from those who may be responsible, and with the shipowner filing a motion to limit its liability just days after the incident, we must act as quickly as possible to protect the interests of the city.
There is already a separate federal investigation into the deadly collapse of Baltimore’s Francis Scott Key Bridge by the National Transportation Safety Board.

The FBI has launched a criminal investigation into the Baltimore bridge collapse that killed six construction workers.
In the early stages of this investigation, investigators are focusing on the electrical power system of the massive container ship that veered off course.
Jennifer Homendy, chairwoman of the National Transportation Safety Board, said her agency was collecting data with help from Hyundai, the maker of equipment in the ship’s engine room. Testifying before a U.S. Senate committee, she said investigators also asked for help examining the circuit breakers.
“That’s what we’re focused on right now in this investigation,” she said. “Of course, this is preliminary. It might take different routes, different paths as we continue this investigation.
Homendy said they focused on the electrical system. The ship experienced power problems moments before the accident, as evidenced by videos showing its lights turning off and on.
Investigators are also looking at the bridge’s design and how it could be built with better protection of the piers “by today’s standards,” Homendy said.
The container ship Dali was leaving Baltimore, loaded with cargo and heading to Sri Lanka, when it struck one of the bridge’s support columns last month, causing the span to collapse into the Patapsco River and sending six members of the roadworks crew plunge to their deaths. .
Crews worked to extract sections of the fallen bridge, including those tangled in a muddy mess at the bottom of the Patapsco River.
“This work is remarkably complex,” Maryland Gov. Wes Moore said at a news conference last week.
Officials said they still plan to open a third temporary shipping channel by the end of April, which would allow significantly more commercial traffic to pass through the Port of Baltimore. The East Coast shipping hub has been closed to most shipping traffic since the bridge collapsed, which blocked access to its main channel.

Moore said efforts continue to unload shipping containers from the Dali, which will eventually be refloated once pieces of the fallen bridge are also removed from its bow. He said teams aimed to remove 178 containers; 34 have been deleted so far.
Moore also called for bipartisan support from Congress to fund the construction of a new bridge, saying federal lawmakers came together in 2007 to fund the reconstruction of the Interstate 35 bridge in Minnesota after it collapsed into the Mississippi River. He called on members of Congress to visit Maryland and see for themselves.
“Sit down with me and my team, approach the wreck,” he said. “See what we’ve been seeing for the last two weeks. See what it looks like when a steel bridge falls on top of a ship the size of the Eiffel Tower.
Federal security investigators remain on scene in Baltimore. They conducted numerous interviews, including with the ship’s pilots and crew members, Homendy said during his testimony Wednesday. She testified at a hearing on her nomination to continue as chair of the board for a second term.
She said the committee’s preliminary report on the accident would likely be released early next month.
Safety investigators previously established a preliminary timeline leading up to the crash, which federal and state officials said appeared to be an accident.
