New York authorities have identified two of the adult victims who died in a fatal helicopter crash as Agustín Escobar and Merce Camprubi Montal, a married couple from Spain. They were among the three adults and three children who perished in the accident. The couple’s children were believed to be the other victims, along with the pilot. Escobar was a senior executive at Siemens and was well-regarded in his field. Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez called the crash an “unimaginable tragedy,” and Siemens expressed deep sadness over the loss of Escobar and his family.
