Crew Member from Downed U.S. Fighter Jet Was Rescued

At least one crew member from the U.S. fighter jet shot down over Iran was rescued by American forces, CBS News reports.

Photos and video circulating on social media suggested at least one U.S. C-130 aircraft and two Black Hawk helicopters were spotted flying low over central and southwest Iran in what was described as a possible effort to locate and recover the crew.

CNN reports the pilot was alive, in U.S. custody and receiving medical treatment. It wasn’t clear what the status of the second crew member was.
