ROBERTSON COUNTY, Tenn. (WTVF) — A Tennessee Army National Guard UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter made an emergency landing near Greenbrier Friday afternoon.

Around 1:15 p.m., a crew from Nashville’s 1-230th Assault Helicopter Battalion was performing pilot training when they received an alert requiring them to land immediately, a spokesperson told NewsChannel 5.

The crew was able to safely land the aircraft without injury.

A Tennessee National Guard maintenance team is now assessing the helicopter.

Tenn. mom invites son's organ recipients to do his favorite activity, dance

Here’s a beautiful story of how one mother turned her grief journey into a gathering of gratitude… and organ donation awareness.

Robb Coles highlights a special event organized by Cari Hollis – whose 26-year old son Austin died two years ago. Austin agreed to be an organ donor – and that single gesture saved multiple lives.

Cari reached out to as many recipients she could find – several of whom traveled to Nashville for an emotional celebration in Austin’s honor. One woman – whose life was saved by receiving Austin’s lungs – put it simply: “He’s my angel”.
