Well those of you that talked about and/or thought that the Baltimore incident was just the test run. Maybe not conspiratorial after all:
Container ship's engines die outside NYC, comes to stop near Verrazzano bridge (msn.com)
Odd how New York is where this happened, there are other bridges around the US that still might be targets, but as for this day, the incident was diverted.
If Baltimore was in fact a dry/wet run.

Quote: Alarge container ship lost propulsion in waters near New York Harbor Friday evening before tugboats pulled it to a stop at an anchorage near the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge.
The scene evoked last month's tragedy in Baltimore Harbor when another container vessel slammed into the Francis Scott Key Bridge, knocking it down and killing a half-dozen people who were conducting maintenance work. Police managed to close the bridge to traffic before the impact there.
The 89,000-ton vessel, the APL Qingdao, lost power in the Kill Van Kull waterway, a busy shipping lane between the Big Apple's borough of Staten Island and New Jersey.
A group of tugboats pulled the stalled vessel out of the way, placing it near the bridge to anchor safely while repairs could be made, the U.S. Coast Guard told Fox News Digital in a statement.
"The vessel regained propulsion and was assisted to safely anchor in Stapleton Anchorage, outside the navigable channel just north of the Verrazzano Bridge, by three towing vessels," the Coast Guard said
Odd how New York is where this happened, there are other bridges around the US that still might be targets, but as for this day, the incident was diverted.
