Workers remove first chunk of destroyed Baltimore bridge

Workers have lifted out the first, 200-ton chunk of Baltimore's collapsed bridge, officials said Sunday, as efforts get underway to clear the harbor of the steel structure destroyed by an out-of-control ship. The difficult conditions have hampered efforts to recover the bodies of the road workers -- all Latino immigrants -- who died when the bridge collapsed, with just two of six bodies recovered so far.
