[Baltimore Sun] Body of fifth victim recovered from truck in Key Bridge wreckage Wednesday
The body of a fifth person killed in the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse was recovered Wednesday.
The Key Bridge Unified Command recovered the body of 49-year-old Miguel Luna, of Glen Burnie, from inside a red truck found by salvage teams, the unified command said in a news release late Wednesday night.
The bodies of five of six victims have now been recovered. José Mynor López, a father of four who was originally from Guatemala and lived in Dundalk, is still missing
Friends described Luna, an immigrant from El Salvador and father of three, as a joyful father and grandfather whoworked as a welder. Luna and his wife, Maria del Carmen, are minor celebrities for the family’s pink and white food truck, Pupuseria Y Antojitos Carmencita Luna. Last month, friends and family hosted a memorial soccer tournament in his honor.
“We remain dedicated to the ongoing recovery operations while knowing behind each person lost in this tragedy lies a loving family,” Col.Roland Butler, superintendent of the Maryland Department of State Police, said in a news release.
