Four of five people aboard a US Navy helicopter that went down in the Atlantic off Virginia have been rescued.
The search is continuing for the fifth person, while two Coast Guard cutters head to the scene.
A Navy helicopter rescued the four, but their conditions are not known, the Coast Guard said on Wednesday.
The helicopter has been identified by the Navy as an MH-53-E.
According to the Naval Air Systems Command website, the aircraft performs airborne mine countermeasures and on board delivery missions.
