WASHINGTON (Reuters): Scores of people were feared dead after an American Airlines regional passenger jet carrying 64 people collided with a U.S. Army Black Hawk helicopter and crashed into the frigid Potomac River near Reagan Washington National Airport.
NBC's Washington affiliate News4 reported that more than 30 bodies had been recovered from the river. U.S. Senator Roger Marshall of Kansas, from where the flight was traveling, suggested most, if not all those, on board had been killed.
