A Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter from the Tennessee Nationwide Guard crashed Wednesday afternoon close to Freeway 53 in Huntsville, Alabama. Two crew members have been immediately killed on the impression. 

“We’re deeply saddened by the lack of two Tennessee Nationwide Guardsmen, and our prayers are with their households throughout this heartbreaking tragedy.”

 “We ask Tennesseans to affix us in supporting their households throughout this time of unthinkable grief,” Brig. Gen. Warner Ross, Tennessee’s Adjutant Common, stated in an announcement.

In response to Ross, the 2 crew members have been conducting a flight-training mission.

The helicopter crashed close to Freeway 53 and Burwell Highway round 1500 ET. He stated there have been no survivors.
