NEW YORK (AP) — A helicopter broke apart in midair and crashed upside-down into the Hudson River between Manhattan and the New Jersey waterfront Thursday, killing all six people aboard in the latest high-profile aviation disaster in the U.S., according to witnesses and a law enforcement official.
The New York Fire Department said it received a report of the crash at 3:17 p.m. All six people aboard were killed, a law enforcement official told The Associated Press. The official was not authorized to speak publicly and did so on condition of anonymity.
Witness Bruce Wall said he saw the helicopter “falling apart” in midair, with the tail and propeller coming off. The propeller was still spinning without the aircraft as it fell, he said.
Video posted to social media showed parts of the chopper splashing into the water, and the overturned aircraft was submerged, with rescue boats circling it.

He has just issued the executive order to set that in motion.
The order also targets the American Bar Association, the Liaison Committee on Medical Education, and the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education.
