News: Helicopter crashes into a pub in Glasgow, Scotland

November 30 is the feast day of St. Andrew, the patron saint of Scotland. However, what should have been a national day of celebration was instead a day of national mourning after a police helicopter crashed into a packed Glasgow pub Friday evening, killing eight people and seriously injuring 14 others.
All three aboard the chopper were killed in the crash, while five others were found dead inside the pub. In all, 32 people were admitted to three hospitals in the city. 18 of the injured had been discharged as of this morning. The injuries were described as being mostly mostly chest, spinal and head injuries as well as fractures and lacerations.
Photos taken at the scene on Stockwell Street, located near the banks of the River Clyde, showed the helicopter smashed into the roof of The Clutha pub. The crash, which occurred around 10:30 p.m., appeared to cave in parts of the bar's roof.
