NEWPORT NEWS, Va. (AP) — Officials say a Navy helicopter has crashed in Virginia's James River and three crew members have been rescued uninjured.

Naval Air Force Atlantic spokesman Mike Maus said the MH-60S helicopter crashed this morning during a training mission. Maus said the three crew members on board were not injured but are being taken to the Portsmouth Naval Medical Center for observation.

Maus said the crew members were rescued by a Newport News Police boat. Photos from the scene show the crew members walking on their own after making it back to land.
