Helicopter pilot faces alcohol related charges
The pilot of a helicopter that crashed into the Ohio River in November now faces alcohol related charges. The Federal Aviation Administration has already revoked Randy Powell's pilot's license.
Now he also faces charges of flying while intoxicated. Powell told investigators he was flying from the Belterra Casino when his helicopter lost power and fell into the river.
