The helicopter accident in the Hudson River in New York leaves us six deaths, including three children: latest updates
We have FDNY resources right here and we immediately launched our boats. This operation was a joint operation between FDNY and NYPD. Our rescue swimmers were in water shortly after the call and recovered some victims. We worked closely with the nypd divers on this and I think this tragic day indicates how the spirit of cooperation between the NYPD and the FDNY is alive on the streets and in the water.
Commissioner Fdny Robert Tucker

“It’s devastation,” said Michael Roth, New York Helicopter Tours. “I am a father and a grandfather and to have children there, I am devastated. I am absolutely devastated.
“The only thing I know watching a video of the helicopter that falls, that the main blades of the rotor were not on the helicopter,” Roth said visibly shocked. “And I haven’t seen anything like that in my 30 years in business, in the helicopter sector. The only thing I could guess – I had no idea – is that either had a strike of the birds or the shovels of the main rotor have failed. I have no idea. I don’t know.”
