Blame the Middle Easterners!

So we get an airplane and helicopter collide (other reports is that it was two airplanes) and crash today in Sharonville, Ohio - a subdivision just north of Cincinnati. The local news is taking eyewitness callers, and Channel 5 gets a doozy:

Out of the numerous callers I have listened to, this is the only person that alleged someone parachuted out of a plane. Even more interesting is how he is saying that the person appeared to be Middle Eastern.

It is too early to call "Frank" a liar, but I am very suspicious of this account. I will keep updating this as more news becomes available.

UPDATE:

There was no Middle Easterner involved. A total of three people died in this sad accident. Someone was trying to get their 15 minutes of fame by fabricating a story from this tragedy (which I figured from the beginning). Hopefully the news media will stop taking callers live during such stories.

Comments

any updates on that?
