KABUL - A helicopter of the U.S.-led coalition force crashed in southeastern Afghanistan on Sunday, the coalition said, but did not say if there were any casualties.

2. We've lost quite a few choppers lately
sometimes they start out as going down for "ABC" reason and then the story will change to "XYZ" reason. I wonder if this one will stay engine failure?
