CALIFORNIA: A medical emergency helicopter crashed on a busy stretch of Highway 50 in Sacramento, California, on Monday, injuring three people, the air transport operator said, although there were no patients on board.
The survivors were taken to hospitals for treatment, Sacramento Mayor Kevin McCarty said in a post on X, after the plane went down on the east side of the highway near 59th Street in the city.
“We are in the process of determining the details of this situation as well as the condition of the crew involved, who were all taken to area hospitals,” operator Reach told Reuters in an email.
Its website shows that the company provides services to the critically ill and injured in the western United States.
The cause of the crash is under investigation, CBS News, which initially reported the incident, said.
Sacramento fire authorities and the regulator, the Federal Aviation Administration, did not respond to Reuters requests for comment.
