Social media users were not impressed with Washington D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser's initial reaction to video of the Baltimore bridge collapse on Tuesday morning.
Bowser posted to X an unusual, 'Oh no,' in response to a post on X showing images and video of the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse after a cargo ship collided with a support structure for the 1.6-mile-long bridge around 1:27 a.m.
In a now-deleted post, Bowser responded on her personal account to X, formerly Twitter, around 7:00 a.m. to the horrific collapse in D.C.'s neighboring city of Baltimore, Maryland.
Asked to expand on the post, Bowser's office referred DailyMail.com to a post the mayor made to her official X account two hours after her initial response.
'Our prayers are with our neighbors in Baltimore and all those impacted by the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge,' Bowser wrote on X around 9:00 a.m.
She added: 'This morning, I reached out to [Baltimore] Mayor Scott, and we stand ready to support Baltimore in these difficult days ahead.'
