    Fuck, a local one. My first job was at this mall 20+ years ago. It’s a cloudy, rainy night. The direction I assume they were going, they missed 2 big parking lots and the mall itself, and either hit in the middle of Cottman ave or directly into the rowhomes. This was a medical taxi flight with a patient, med crew and family aboard. 6 dead so far. I wouldn’t be surprised if the number rises from ground casualties. I’m in disbelief right now. The sky is falling. I don’t even know what to say, just thinking of the victims.

      Number of victims is not clear. Media has reported 6 on-board, officials have said 2.

        MSNBC just reported 6. But then it hit multiple buildings as well.

        Edit MSNBC reporting: Air Ambulance flight. 4 crew, 1 pediatric patient, and the patients escort.

        Patient was a young girl from Mexico who had completed treatment and was headed home.
