FORT WORTH (CBSDFW.COM) - Bell Helicopter is trimming its workforce little more than a year after 290 people lost their jobs. The company is laying off 325 employees, across the company, mainly in its Fort Worth facilities.

Officials said the company, headquartered in East Fort Worth, is downsizing due to a continued decline in defense spending.
