Authorities say a military jet apparently practicing for an Ohio air show has been involved in an accident. Sgt. Penelope Reed of the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office in Dayton says a report was received around 12:30 p.m. Friday, June 23, 2017, of a jet off the end of a runway and on its top at the Dayton International Airport.
A toxicology report confirmed a drug overdose as the cause of death for a Spirit Airlines pilot and his wife, who were found dead in their southwest Ohio home on March 16. Brian J. Halye, 36, and 34-year-old Courtney A. Halye died as a result of "cocaine and carfentanil intoxication," said Dr. Kent Harshbarger, the Montgomery County coroner, in a report released Tuesday. The painkiller carfentanil, a version of fentanyl, is 10,000 times stronger than morphine.
