schema:text	A photo showing a car almost submerged in a water body is going viral on social media where users are linking it to Francis Scott Key Bridge that collapsed in United States' Baltimore. Some context: The bridge in Baltimore Harbor collapsed on 26 March after a large cargo ship rammed into the structure. Several vehicles on the bridge at the time plunged into the River Patapsco. How did we find out the truth?: We performed a reverse image search on the viral image and this led us to an article shared by the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) on 1 January 2022. The article states that a car entered the River Roe near Dungiven, a town in Northern Ireland. It added that according to the Northern Ireland Fire and Rescue Service (NIFRS) , they used ropes to help the driver and get the car out on the river. The image was credited to NIFRS and we found a Facebook post on their official page. NIFRS shared several image related to the incident on 1 January 2022. Conclusion: Clearly, an old and unrelated image from Ireland is being falsely linked to the bridge collapse in Baltimore.
