A B-52 bomber carrying six crew members has crashed off the island of Guam in the Western Pacific Ocean, the US Air Force said.
The Coast Guard said two people have been recovered from the waters. Their condition was not immediately known.
Rescue crews from the Navy, Coast Guard and local fire department are searching for the others.
Officials say the crash occurred about 25 miles northwest of Apra Harbour.
The accident is the second for the air force this year on Guam.
In February, a B-2 crashed at Andersen Air Force Base in the first-ever crash of a stealth bomber. The military estimated the loss of the aircraft at 1.4 billion US dollars.


Doesn't sound particularly good - our thoughts are with their families and friends
