Rochester, New York (CaymanMama.com) — A BREAKING NEWS REPORT FROM CAYMANMAMA.COM
In a breaking news story by the Associated Press, US Airways Flight 1549 went down into the cold waters of the Hudson River, leaving passengers swimming frantically for safety.
Federal Aviation Administration spokeswoman Laura Brown said the carrier plane just departed from LaGuardia Airport enroute to Charlotte, N.C., on Thursday when the plane went down.
Brown says the Airbus 320 may have been hit by a flock of birds before it went down in the river near 48th Street in midtown Manhattan.
New York City firefighters are currently on the scene of the crash, but it was not made immediately clear if anyone was hurt.
“I saw what appeared to be a tail fin of a plane sticking out of the water,” said Erica Schietinger, whose office windows look out over the Hudson. “All the boats have sort of circled the area. … I can’t tell what’s what at this point.”
