WATCH: American Airlines jet, US Army Black Hawk collide midair near Washington DC

A regional jet of American Airlines crashed into a military Black Hawk helicopter midair near Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport outside Washington, DC, on Wednesday night, according to the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). According to The Washington Post, multiple bodies had been pulled from the water. No survivors had so far been found, the newspaper reported. Senator Ted Cruz of Texas said on social media that "we know there are fatalities," though he did not say how many. The PSA Airlines Bombardier CRJ700 regional jetliner, operating as American Airlines Flight 5342, was approaching the airport after departing from Wichita, Kansas, when it struck a Sikorsky H-60 helicopter. The aircraft, which can carry up to 65 passengers, was involved in the incident over the Potomac River, which borders the airport.
