The Prince George's County Council is devastated by the deadly plane collision at Reagan National Airport. We are grateful for the swift response and heroic efforts of first responders who worked tirelessly through the night. That includes the Prince George’s County Police Department’s Special Operation Division’s Marine Unit, Dive Unit and Aviation Section who are on site and assisting with efforts on the Potomac River. Our county will assist as long as necessary. We offer our deepest condolences to the families and loved ones of those who perished, and our thanks to first responders for their courage and commitment as they continue the recovery effort.
