U.S. Navy Helicopter Crashes in Tsunami Hit Indonesia

 

A US helicopter, which was taking part in tsunami relief work in Indonesia, has crash landed at Banda Aceh. It crashed on its approach to the airfield, injuring all 10 people onboard.

Cmdr. Mark McDonald, a spokesman for the U.S. relief effort, said that the injuries were believed to be "very minor". Australian troops were the first on the crash scene.

The helicopter was the Navy's equivalent of the Army's UH-60 Black Hawk, a SH-60 Seahawk. It was on its way to Banda Aceh from the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln. An investigation is underway.
