The New York Police Department said Thursday afternoon that there was a helicopter crash into the Hudson River.

Karenna, a former athlete, was named Woman of the Year by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) in 2022, her senior year. She had graduated from MIT, where she met James, and was enrolled in medical school at the New York University (NYU), the family said.

A fatal crash Thursday became the latest incident in a long history of helicopter wrecks in the New York City area.
