Broward Sheriff Gregory Tony had asked the county for new helicopters years before the fatal crash Monday that killed two people, he said at a news conference Tuesday afternoon. Now, after a verbal agreement from the county, two new helicopters are on the way. The Airbus Helicopter EC 135T-1 helicopter, one of only two paramedic helicopters operated by BSO, had an engine fire in flight, a pilot told investigators, plummeting into an apartment building in Pompano Beach Monday morning and killing a Broward Sheriff’s Fire Rescue captain and a woman on the ground.
