Honor procession today for crash victims

Fire departments and emergency medical personnel will gather this morning in La Crosse to escort home the hearses of three people killed in a Saturday medical helicopter crash.

“Everyone around here feels like they have lost,” said event organizer and La Crosse County Deputy Medical Examiner Tim Candahl.
The escort is a tribute to the crew of three who died when a UW Med Flight helicopter crashed into a wooded hillside near La Crosse on Saturday night.
