The 141 meter long self-propelled barge Dyna allided with a bridge on the Danube at Deggendorf, Germany. The Dyna had suffered engine failure and went adrift as it passed under the bridge. The strong currents caused the barge to strike the bridge and drift until it rested against a pylon. The crew was able to restart the engine, but was unable to free itself. A towing vessel was requested to pull the barge free. No reports of injuries. The bridge sustained damage, but did not suffered any structural damage. The Dyna was en route from Deggendorf to Regensburg.
