Does anyone know the details of the helicopter crash in Arizona? The radio is saying they are going after person involved in police chase for the crash. This is all I've been able to catch so far.

 

4 dead. I think.

 

4 dead, two in each news helicopter. They were covering a stolen vehicle chase and collided. They are considering charges against the crook for the deaths.

There are lots of details on www.azcentral.com. http://www.azcentral.com/news/articl...ation0729.html

There are also more links on the page to other articles about the crash.

 

It's odd how these crashes seem to come in spurts, we had the two news choppers mid-air in AZ. Then we had those two drop dead beautiful P-51 Mustangs crash at an airshow, another bi-plane crashes in another airshow within a few days of each other.

Yesterday morning I was up getting ready to head to the airport and was watching my local Fox news in Dallas and the Jet Ranger traffic copter flamed out a few miles from my house and auto-rotated down and make a crash landing, everyone (3) survived with minor to no injuries but the heli went down in a hilly area below a lake dam and smacked pretty hard as they didn't have the altitude to perform a good auto-rotation and destroyed the Jet Ranger after it landed upright but then rolled down the hill.

 

That SUCKS!!!![&:]
