| A US Airways plane has crashed into the Hudson River in New York. The Airbus A320 aircraft came down in the river having taken off from New York's La Guardia airport. Local media reports suggest that the plane was attempting to return to La Guardia after a suspected bird strike. New York City firefighters are responding to the accident. It was not immediately clear if there were injuries. Stranded passengers were awaiting rescue on the wings of the stricken aircraft. "I just thought, 'Why is it so low?' And, splash, it hit the water," said witness Barbara Sambriski, a researcher at Associated Press. Sorry, I was eating Chex Mix when recording the feed, didn't know it was that loud ha |
