The cargo ship that caused the deadly bridge collapse in Baltimore back in March is heading out of U.S. waters after three months of repair work.

The Dali is departing Norfolk, Virginia, Thursday morning for China on the heels of a lawsuit filed by the Justice Department seeking to recover more than $100 million from the owner and manager of the ship. The suit alleges they recklessly cut corners and ignored known problems that led directly to the collapse.
