My apologies for the Twitter link. Appears to have happened around 1:30 EDT, judging from the timestamp in the video. Seems unsurprising that Amerikkkan infrastructure is in this dire of a state (at the cost of innocent people's lives, as usual), but I'd still love to know what the hell happened here. Hopefully the early hour meant that more people weren't harmed.

The position itself is necessary (though I'm sure there's plenty of failsons doing it out there) as waters around ports are often tricky and require local knowledge. It also ensures that the port itself has some level of control over the caliber of person captaining ships around it so that you're not getting some half-trained 14-year-old piloting a ship several hundred times larger than the landlocked village he grew up in around your critical infrastructure.
