I am watching CNN right now and there is a report of a Coast Guard helicopter that crashed near James Island in LaPush, Washington. Three crew members died and one survived.
The helicopter, a MH-60 Jayhawk, was flying to Sitka, Alaska, after departing the Coast Guard Air Station in Astoria, Oregon.
The Coast Guard lost communication with the helicopter around 9:30 a.m. PT (12:30 p.m. ET).
