2 Injured In Helicopter Crash While Filming Show In Texas

COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) - Authorities say two men were injured in a helicopter crash while filming an episode of television reality series "A Haunting" in Texas.

The Texas Department of Public Safety says the crash happened Saturday night near a community located about 20 miles east of College Station.

Two helicopters were filming when one was hit by a gust of wind and spun out of control, striking a tree and dropping on its right side.

Thirty-six-year-old pilot Jacob Oliver and 77-year-old passenger Wayne Bomstad were taken to a Bryan hospital with injures that were not life-threatening according to a report in The Houston Chronicle. 

DPS and the Federal Aviation Administration are investigating.
The show, which airs on Destination America, tells the stories of people who say they've had encounters with supernatural forces.
