Officials have identified the three people who were killed when a medical helicopter crashed in eastern Arkansas.
Pafford Air One identified the victims as 46-year-old pilot Michael Bollen of Hot Springs, 61-year-old flight nurse James Lawson Spruiell of Sulligent, Alabama; and 26-year-old flight paramedic John Auld III, who went by the nickname Trey, of Shreveport, Louisiana.
No patients were on board when the Bell 407 helicopter crashed Sunday night in a rural area of Arkansas about 60 miles east of Little Rock. Pafford Air One says the helicopter had been flying from Pine Bluff to a hospital in Helena-West Helena.
Federal investigators are looking into the cause of the crash.
This story has been corrected to show that the helicopter was traveling to Helena-West Helena, not DeWitt.
