The helicopter crashed about a half-mile south of Arizona 86, about 20 miles west of Three Points while on a routine patrol, said Andy Adame, a spokesman for the Border Patrol. However, both occupants suffered non-life-threatening injuries and the cause of the crash remains under investigation, Adame concluded. It is the third crash of a Border Patrol OH-6 in the Tucson Sector in four years.
