Ten U.S. service members from the Naval Air Station Fallon were flown in to Reno, Nevada after injuries sustained from a training incident Thursday night, according to local reports.
Two MH-60S Seahawk helicopters assigned to the Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron 12 were involved in an incident at the Fallon air station on Thursday, Commander Beth Teach with the Naval Air Forces told USA TODAY.
The 10 sailors suffered non-life threatening injuries, Teach said.
They were in two helicopters that landed at Pickett Park in Reno at approximately 9:15 p.m., KRNV reported. Fallon is located in the Nevada desert about 62 miles east of Reno, which is near the California border.
Renown Regional Medical Center in Reno told KTVN that the 10 service members were being treated there, but did not confirm their conditions.
USA TODAY has contacted the Reno Police Department for more information.
Vice President JD Vance’s visit to Las Vegas this week could lead to travel issues around Southern Nevada.
Vance is scheduled to land in Las Vegas on Tuesday when he’ll be a guest speaker at a MAGA Inc. fundraiser at an undisclosed location, according to The Washington Post.
Vance will remain in Las Vegas until Wednesday where he’ll be a featured speaker at the Bitcoin 2025 Conference being held at The Venetian.
A temporary flight restriction for VIP movement in place over Southern Nevada between 10:45 a.m. Tuesday, and 11:15 a.m. Wednesday, according to Federal Aviation Administration records.
Despite the temporary flight restriction, flight impacts related to Vance’s visit at Harry Reid International Airport are not expected, according to airport spokesman Luke Nimmo.
Temporary traffic issues should be expected anywhere near Vance’s motorcade travels in the Las Vegas Valley this week, including near Reid Airport and The Venetian. Typical presidential and vice-presidential visits can see temporary shutdowns of portions of the Airport Connector Tunnel, the 215 Beltway, Interstate 15 and Las Vegas Boulevard, as the motorcade travels around Las Vegas.
Other surface roads near the airport and The Venetian such as Tropicana Avenue, Spring Mountain Road/Sands Avenue are also routinely affected during presidential visits.
The Metropolitan Police Department didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment on potential Vance motorcade road impacts.
