US CBP Helicopter down in Oklahoma City Metro

A United States Customs and Border Patrol Air and Marine Operations Airbus H125 (formerly the A350) crashed today on the grounds of the Clarence E. Page Municipal Airport near Yukon, Oklahoma.

Both pilots are in good condition and were seen sitting in the back of a pickup after the crash, one with a cervical collar for neck support. The aircraft is a total loss and started a small grass fire that was extinguished by the Oklahoma City Fire Department.
