The remains of a fourth person killed in the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse in Baltimore, Maryland last month were recovered on Monday, according to authorities.

The body was found trapped inside a missing construction vehicle, the unified command group in charge of recovery said. The victim was transported to the medical examiner’s office and identified, but their name was not immediately released at the request of the family.

Of the eight construction workers sent into the Patapsco River in the early hours of March 26 when the cargo ship Dali slammed into the bridge as they worked to repair potholes, six were killed. Recovery crews pulled two bodies out of the river a day after the collapse, and a third body was found on April 5. They were identified as Maynor Suazo Sandoval, 38; Dorlian Castillo Cabrera, 26; and Alejandro Hernandez Fuentes, 35.
