-- A medical helicopter has crashed behind a postal facility in a Delaware industrial park, killing the pilot, authorities said. "I heard this blurb blurb blurb and then I looked up in the sky," Marian Williams, who saw the helicopter nosedive, told CBS Philly. "Our thoughts and prayers are with our pilot's family and the entire Metro Aviation and PennSTAR family," Holmes wrote. Hale said the helicopter crashed into a ditch behind a U.S. Post office facility, causing minor damage to an outbuilding and vehicles parked behind the building. The Federal Aviation Administration said in a statement that the Eurocopter E135 helicopter crashed just before noon Thursday about 1 mile southeast of New Castle Airport.
