Shane McMahon, son of WWE CEO Vince McMahon, was involved in a helicopter crash Wednesday.
According to reports, Shane and another person departed the Westchester County Airport in small helicopter. After their takeoff, a commercial flight en route to JFK airport intercepted an emergency call, which they relayed to FAA controllers.
The aircraft ended up crash-landing into the Atlantic Ocean. Miraculously, both people were rescued by ferry, and sustained no injuries.
