The Associated Press reports that the McCain was headed to Singapore for a routine port visit when the accident took place. The collision was with an oil tanker three times the size of the McCain, according to The Washington Post. Five others were reportedly injured in the collision. The Navy has begun search and rescue operations to recover the missing. President Trump, responding to questions Sunday night about the collision following his return to the White House, said, "That's too bad."
