NEW: FBI opens up criminal investigation into Key Bridge collapse

The FBI has opened up a criminal investigation into the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, Maryland after a boat crashed into it last month.

Authorities are reviewing the events leading up to the crash of the boat and the subsequent collapse of the bridge early in the morning on March 26, the Washington Post reports. The boat reportedly lost power briefly before veering one of the bridge's support, sending the bridge cascading into the water below. Six lives were lost.  

On Monday, federal agents boarded the crashed boat to conduct a search. Agents wore yellow and orange life jackets as they boarded the Dali, standing where it had been since the crash. The FBI confirmed that it had agents on the ship conducting the investigation.
