One sailor died and two others were injured Wednesday night when a Navy E-2D Hawkeye aircraft crashed off the coast of Virginia.

The Navy didn’t identify the Hawkeye’s unit, but said in a statement that it was assigned to an “East Coast Airborne Command and Control Squadron” and crashed near Wallops Island and Chincoteague, Virginia, northeast of Norfolk.
