A helicopter crashed into a radio tower near downtown Houston Sunday night, killing four people on board, including a child, fire officials said.
Houston authorities said the aircraft, a privately-owned R44 helicopter, went down just before 8 p.m. after taking off from Ellington Field, about 15 miles away. Its destination wasn't immediately known.
A nearby security camera caught the crash as it happened:
