Mayor Adams provides an update on the Hudson River helicopter crash that took the lives of six (Video)

New York City Mayor Eric Adams mourned the “heartbreaking and tragic crash” in a post on X, warning New Yorkers to stay away from Pier 40 while rescuers from FDNY and the NYPD assist with rescue efforts.

Six people are dead after a tourist helicopter carrying a family from Spain “split in half” mid-air and spiraled out of the sky before crashing into the Hudson River on April 10, according to officials.
