WASHINGTON D.C., DC — Multiple Texas representatives have released statements Wednesday night after a plane collided with a military helicopter, causing it to crash near the Ronald Reagan Washington National airport. Ronald Reagan Washington National airport has closed all runways, and stopped air traffic in the area.

All flights at Reagan National have been halted as rescue crews work to find victims from the plane. According to Councilmember Brooke Pinto, it was a 60-person passenger plane. However, it is unclear how many people were onboard. Multiple agencies are on the ground and in the air conducting rescue efforts.
