Default VS-32 Mauler down near NAS Jax

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- A Navy S-3B Viking jet crashed into woods just
west of Naval Air Station Jacksonville at midday Wednesday.

According to Jacksonville Fire-Rescue, the jet went down in woods near
the Westside Regional Park in the 6500 block of Roosevelt Boulevard.

"There was a large flash, like lightning, only brighter. Then we heard
a big 'kaboom,'" witness Donna Wells told Channel 4 in a special report
just before 1 p.m. "Just a few minutes later, a big cloud of black
smoke came up over the trees."
