FAA: Helicopter crashes in NM RATON — Authorities say a helicopter has crashed in rural northern New Mexico near the Colorado line. The Federal Aviation Administration says the heli- copter was carrying six peo- ple when it crashed early Wednesday evening in mountains about 15 miles (24 kilometers) east of Raton (rah-TOHNE’), but there’s no immediate word of any injuries. The New Mexico State Police said several hours after the crash that “response and rescue attempts” were ongoing but slow, and the agency didn’t immediately respond Thursday to a request for updated informa- tion. FAA spokesman Lynn Lunsford says the agency didn’t have information about the ownership of the helicopter or its departure point or destination. Suit filed against indicted officer DALLAS — A federal civil rights lawsuit has been filed against an indicted former police officer in a Dallas sub- urb in the shooting of a black man who was mistaken for a thief while trying to unlock his own truck. The lawsuit filed Thursday names both the former officer, Derick Wiley, and the city of Mesquite. Wiley, who is black, was fired for use-of-force viola- tions after the November shooting of Lyndo Jones, who was injured. A grand jury indicted Wiley in December on an aggravated assault charge in the shooting. The lawsuit filed by Jones says he seeks “answers and compensation.” The lawsuit says Jones’ recovery has been “fraught with multiple returns to emergency rooms.”
