Praying for all those injured and their families, co-workers and friends. It is a miracle no one was killed.

Hope they all heal from their injuries soon. Grateful that helicopter incidents with LA County law enforcement are very rare.

They need to vote him out. The LA Crime is so out of control because he doesn't know how to run a department. All he does is cry about the way he's not liked.

I'll bet they don't show pictures of those people like they did in the Kobe Bryant accident .

Thanking the people for saving the people. Let's give credit where credit is due.

[PlaneMaster-tcyw]

Man, I feel bad for the patient they were transporting. Imagine getting into a car crash, getting rescued AND THEN getting into a helicopter crash.

[joehum]

The ADS-B track sure looks like they flew into the power lines

[daveward]

Never saw a 5 star sheriff before, wow!

jeez what a robotic reading from a notecard of a doctor.

[donaldharlan]

Sorry, if anyone got hurt.⤵But I am glad, that is one Sheriff helicopter down, that cannot be used to harm anyone else.🌬🚁 I understand it was used for espionage/voyeurism, in East LA.🛒Also, used to break into LA Government offices, on midnight weekends, landing on the roof, in silent mode. 💰

[dennisoconnell]

Thank God they all survived. Prayers for a quick recovery to all

[GardenerEarthGuy]

[stevengottlieb]

God bless them all. They are our angels, who regularly fly towards danger to save lives in some of the most difficult places and conditions imaginable.
