Two people were killed and one was injured today when a news helicopter crashed near the Space Needle in downtown Seattle.
The two killed were aboard the helicopter, which was used by CNN affiliates KOMO and KING, according to KING's website. The injured person, with burns to more than 50% of his body, was in a car that was struck by the aircraft, a Seattle Fire Department spokesman said.
The incident occurred around 7:40 a.m., more than two hours before the Space Needle was to open but at a time when the area was bustling with commuters en route to work.
Rich Marriott, a meteorologist for KING, said weather did not appear to have contributed to the crash as visibility was clear and winds. Ref. CNN
