Navy Commander Beth Teach confirmed an MH-60R Seahawk from Helicopter Maritime Strike squadron (HSM) 41 crashed into the waters around 6:40 p.m. Coronado Fire responded to a call on Strand Way and Guadalcanal in Coronado on the Silver Strand shortly after. “Due to the nature of the training, a safety boat was on location and, with the assistance of Federal Fire, all six crew members survived and were promptly moved ashore,“ said Teach. Teach said all six people are undergoing medical evaluation. Navy officials are investigating what caused the crash. FULL STORY:
