NYC came to a grinding halt on Thursday as torrential rains and hurricane-force winds battered the city, flooding streets, subway lines and homes across all five boroughs. The National Weather Service issued a flash flood emergency as more than 6 inches of rain fell within hours, submerging vehicles, cutting power to neighborhoods and turning basements into death traps. The FDNY confirmed two fatalities, one in Brooklyn and another in Washington Heights, as rescue teams struggled to reach trapped residents amid rising waters. WATCH

In a tragic incident in New York City on May 17 night, a Mexican Navy ship crashed into the iconic Brooklyn Bridge. The ship, named Cuauhtemoc, decorated with lights, carrying a huge Mexican flag, was sailing under the bridge and as it passed beneath the structure, its towering masts clipped the bridge, snapping violently and crashing onto the deck. Videos online captured the shocking moment. Crew members were seen standing on the masts when they broke, leading to a devastating outcome. According to New York City Mayor Eric Adams, two people lost their lives, and 19 others were injured. Two of the injured are in critical condition. The ship was on a goodwill visit to the city and had been co-hosted by the South Street Seaport Museum. Built in 1981 in Bilbao, Spain, the Cuauhtemoc was open to the public for tours during its stay in New York, which was supposed to end that evening. Despite the impact, the Brooklyn Bridge did not suffer major damage and was reopened after a safety inspection. Authorities confirmed that no one fell into the water, so no rescue operations were needed. The incident has shocked both visitors and locals, turning what was meant to be a friendly cultural visit into a heartbreaking tragedy.
