Search for Victims of Plane Crash in Washington Continues

Rescuers in Washington are continuing the search for the victims of the plane crash that occurred on Wednesday night. So far, forty bodies have been recovered out of the 67 occupants onboard the plane and helicopter. Authorities presume that no one survived.

Rescue teams are scouring the cold waters of the Potomac River for the remaining victims. The aircraft crashed into the river after colliding with each other, near Reagan National Airport.

The black boxes have been retrieved, but the cause of the accident is still unknown. President Donald Trump, without evidence or further explanation, pointed fingers at the previous Democratic presidents and their diversity policies.
