A Houston police helicopter crashed into a building at a Greenspoint apartment complex early Saturday morning, injuring two officers.
It happened just before 2 a.m. in the 17000 block of Imperial Valley near Benmar.
The aircraft was flying over a bayou where there were reports of bodies in the water when it went down, according to Houston Police Chief Art Acevedo.
Houston firefighters could be seen working to free the pilot and a technical flight officer from the wreckage.
They were flown to Memorial Hermann Hospital where they were in critical condition, Acevedo said.
“We need prayers for these officers,” Acevedo said.
No one on the ground was hurt.
