HONOLULU, Hawaii (AP) -- A U.S. Air Force B-52 bomber carrying six crew members and en route to conduct a flyover in a parade has crashed off the island of Guam.
The U.S. Air Force B-52 bomber was en route to conduct a flyover in a parade when it crashed.
The U.S. Coast Guard says at least two people were recovered from the waters, but their condition was not immediately available.
Rescue crews from the Navy, Coast Guard and local fire department launched a massive aerial and ocean search for the others in and around a vast area of floating debris and a sheen of oil.
The Air Force said the crash occurred at 9:45 a.m. Monday about 30 miles northwest of Apra Harbor.
The accident is the second for the Air Force this year on Guam, a U.S. territory 3,700 miles southwest of Hawaii.
