Each helicopter carried two people, said John Pennell, a spokesperson for the U.S. Army Alaska. Pennell said he did not immediately have any other information he could share about the condition of those involved.
First responders were on scene at the crash site, near Healy, Alaska, a statement from the U.S. Army Alaska said.Officials said the incident was under investigation and more details would be released when they become available. Austin McDaniel, a spokesperson for the Alaska State Troopers, said the state agency was not involved in the response.
In February, two soldiers were injured when an Apache helicopter rolled after taking off from Talkeetna. The aircraft was one of four traveling to Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Anchorage from Fort Wainwright. Healy is located about 10 miles north of Denali National Park and Preserve, or about 250 miles north of Anchorage.
