Mississippi closes at New Orleans

not me I'm on my week off!!

Happened at 2:45AM. It seems the ship ran over the tugboats barge and cut it in half? Guess the 46000 ton ship (that means that's how much cargo it carries) didn't have brakes!

Tug boats hold up the two pieces of a barge that is split in half after an accident caused fuel oil to leak into the Mississippi River Wednesday.
 
I just read that the tug captain didn't have a Coast Guard license. Don't know any more I am actually in Florida and not getting any info.
