Wildfire blocks rescue of crashed helicopter in Utah

A large Utah wildfire has prevented emergency crews from reaching the site of a helicopter crash in Fishlake National Forest, where two people were aboard. The Sikorsky Skycrane crashed Friday, igniting a new fire that merged with the existing Widemouth 2 Fire, now spanning nearly 174 square miles. Officials have not confirmed the crew's status, though the National Interagency Fire Center reported fatal injuries.
