A NBC News helicopter went down in a fiery crash while broadcasting live, killing reporter Eliana Moreno, pilot George Marciniw and at least one person on the ground.
Footage captured moments before the crash shows the aircraft shaking, alarms sounding and a crew member shouting “pull up” as the helicopter struggled to stay aloft. The video was recorded while the crew was delivering a live report.
The two crew members on board were veteran pilot George Marciniw and NBC reporter Eliana Moreno. Both perished in the impact, which turned the aircraft into a blazing inferno.
The crash ignited a massive fire that also claimed the life of at least one person on the ground, according to the initial report of the incident.
