Washington, D.C. – A deadly mid-air collision between an American Airlines passenger jet and a military helicopter near Reagan National Airport has sparked a wave of speculation, with some claiming a UFO may have played a role in the crash.
The incident occurred Wednesday night just before 9 PM, when the Bombardier CRJ700 jet, carrying 60 passengers and four crew members, collided with a Sikorsky H-60 Black Hawk helicopter while on approach to Runway 33. Emergency crews are actively searching the Potomac River for debris and victims.
While authorities, including the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), have yet to determine the official cause of the crash, conspiracy theories are already circulating online. Some eyewitnesses claim to have seen unidentified flying objects in the area moments before impact.
Government officials have not commented on the UFO claims, but sources confirm that President Trump has been briefed on the crash.
