Dashcam video obtained by a source captured the dramatic moment when American Airlines flight 5342 collided with a US Army Black Hawk helicopter over the Potomac River on Wednesday night. The video, taken by a family at Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling, shows a bright orange flash in the sky followed by multiple fragments falling towards the ground. Voices in the background express shock and concern before the video abruptly ends.



The family, choosing to remain anonymous due to being 'traumatized' by the incident, shared their sentiments with the source. They expressed their prayers for the victims' families and first responders, hoping that the video footage would aid in the investigation.
