Two people were killed and dozens were injured Wednesday after whiteout conditions along a highway in Canada trigged a massive pileup involving 200 vehicles south of Montreal.
Transport Minister Francois Bonnardel told reporters in Quebec City the pileup took place in an area where heavy winds come off the river, creating sudden blizzard-like conditions. Two snow removal operations took place in the area in the hour before the incident, but strong winds blew snow back into the roadway from the nearby river.
“People were driving, there were strong winds … and, suddenly, you couldn't see anything,'' Bonnardel told reporters. "And then, well, the pileup started."

A group of American tourists from New York who were at the front of the pileup told Canada's CTV News they pulled onto the highway and faced a "pure white snow like a whiteout" before pulling to the shoulder as the crashes began.

Spencer Jacob told CTV an ambulance responding to an initial crash was hit by an ambulance at "full speed" before a chain-reaction crash was underway.
"Another car came down and just flew into the back of the ambulance. That blocked up two lanes and then another 18-wheeler came and just slammed into that car," Jacob said. "That's when we were like 'this is bad,' and we need to get out of the car. Our doors were pressed against the snow so we had to get out of the windows and run up onto the snowbank and we were just watching."

The group said they tried to wave to other cars to slow down but "they couldn't see" due to the conditions. The group continued to watch cars slam into each other as the crashes mounted to cover a half-mile-long stretch of highway.
"It was straight out of a movie," Jack Sandberg told CTV News.

Police spokesman Sgt. Stephane Tremblay said about 50 vehicles were able to drive away from the collision, but 75 others would need to be towed. Numerous vehicles were mangled, including several large trucks. The two people killed in the crash were in the same vehicle, according to officials

"We know that these people were involved in a collision with a tank truck, which made the rescue operation more difficult for first responders," Tremblay said Wednesday.
A total of 60 were injured in the crash, including 20 in serious condition, CBC News reported.

Tremblay said police crash experts will study what caused the pileup.

A single-engine plane crashed shortly after takeoff from a Hawaii airport Saturday morning, landing upside-down on nearby U.S. Army property, killing both people onboard.
The small, two-seater aircraft, a 1979 Cessna Ector 305, also known as an L19 Bird Dog, crashed around 9:20 a.m. local time shortly after taking off at Dillingham Airfield, located about 35 miles northwest of Honolulu, on Oahu's North Shore, Honolulu’s KITV reported.
One man, who was in his 60s, was pronounced dead at the scene, an Emergency Medical Services spokeswoman told Hawaii News Now. The second onboard, a 78-year-old man, was rushed to the hospital, where he later died of his injuries. Authorities have yet to identify the victims.
THESE ARE FIVE OF THE DEADLIEST U.S. PLANE DISASTERS
“I’m deeply saddened to hear the news of two people losing their lives in today’s crash. My heart goes out to the family and friends of the victims,” Honolulu Mayor Kirk Caldwell tweeted. “Thank you to all the first responders on scene today. We are working with ME’s office to make sure family members are notified.”

Last June, 11 people who had set off on a skydiving expedition were killed when a Beechcraft BE65 twin-engine plane went down shortly after takeoff from Dillingham Airfield.
Dillingham Airfield, a general aviation airport, is operated by the Hawaii Department of Transportation. It was closed indefinitely following Saturday’s crash, Hawaii DOT said.
DEATH TOLL IN HAWAII PLANE CRASH RISES TO 11 VICTIMS
In light of the second tragedy at the airfield in nine months, U.S. Sen. Brian Schatz, D-Hawaii, called for its permanent closure, Hawaii News Now reported. Despite signing a five-year lease with the U.S. Army, Hawaii DOT announced earlier this month it's cutting its contract about three and a half years short. The state is transferring Dillingham Airfield back to the Army effective July 1.
"It has become clear that Dillingham Airfield cannot continue to operate safely,” Schatz said in a statement. “Our obligation is to keep people safe, and the only way to do that is to keep the airfield closed. I urge the FAA and HDOT (Hawaii Department of Transportation) to shut down the airfield until they can guarantee safety of operations at Dillingham.”
U.S. Rep. Ed Case, D-Hawaii, asked for an investigation of safety issues surrounding the airfield.
This is the site at Dillingham Airfield in Mokuleia, Hawaii, where a Beechcraft King Air twin-engine plane crashed Friday, killing 11.

“While it will probably be more than a year until officials are able to determine the cause of this crash, the Federal Aviation Administration cannot treat this as an isolated incident as it did with the previous three, but must immediately ask itself the hard question it has thus far avoided of whether existing tour helicopter/small aircraft regulations are simply inadequate to protect the safety of those in the aircraft and of the over 1 million of us that they fly over every day," Case said in a statement.
But state Rep. Sen. Gil Riviere, who serves the area, said calling for the airfield's closure so close to the deaths of the two pilots was an "insensitive" move.
“These men absolutely loved to fly at Dillingham Airfield, so a call to shut down the airport within hours of their loss is truly insensitive and misinformed," he said.

Around 10,000 demonstrators in Germany on Sunday marched through the town of Hanau to mourn nine victims who were fatally shot by a suspected right-wing extremist last week.
Addressing the crowds, Hanau Mayor Claus Kaminsky called the past week among the “blackest and darkest” the town had ever experienced during peacetime, the Germany News agency dpa reported.

But he qualified that those who want to pull apart society won't succeed, "because we are more and we will prevent that."
The armed suspect, a 43-year-old German man, fatally shot nine people in the Frankfurt suburb on Wednesday before apparently killing his mother and himself.
Five of the victims were reportedly Turkish citizens. The attacker left rambling texts and videos in which he espoused racist views, called for genocide and claimed to have been under surveillance since birth.
Turkey's ambassador to Germany, Ali Kemal Aydin, warned that Turkish immigrants in Germany are experiencing more and more hate crimes in the country.
"This cannot and this must not continue," Aydin said at the protest.
The racist killings were Germany's third deadly far-right attack in recent months. The rampage followed October's anti-Semitic attack on a synagogue in Halle and the slaying in June of a regional politician who supported Chancellor Angela Merkel's welcoming policy toward migrants.

The killings come at a time when the Alternative for Germany has become the country's first extreme-right political party to establish itself as a significant force in decades. All of the victims had immigrant roots, and many are accusing the party of producing a climate where extremism and racism can flourish.

PROGRAMMING ALERT: On Sunday, February 23 at 10 p.m. and on Monday, February 24 at 1 a.m ET, Fox News will air the new special "Unknown Valor: A Story of Family, Courage and Sacrifice," which is the story of Fox News anchor Martha MacCallum's journey to reveal the fate of her uncle, Private Harry Gray, who was killed on Iwo Jima 75 years ago. The director's cut of "Unknown Valor,” will be available exclusively on Fox Nation.
"Is that someone that you recognize?" asked Fox News anchor Martha MacCallum, as she showed an old, yellowed picture of a young Marine to World War II veteran Charles Gubish.

"Oh yeah," said Gubish, the weathered image sparking his recollection. "That was my buddy, Gray."
Harry Gray died 75 years ago, fighting for his country on a remote, volcanic island thousands of miles from home. He's a person who MacCallum never met, but whose story she knows well.

"He was my uncle," said MacCallum, visibly holding back her emotions.

The incredible scene was the culmination of years of research that MacCallum spent closing the circle on a family story that had been passed down generations, but had never been fully completed until now.
This is all told in MacCallum's new book, "Unknown Valor: A Story of Family, Courage and Sacrifice from Pearl Harbor to Iwo Jima," and in associated Fox News and Fox Nation specials.
"In war movies there are the heroes and then there are hundreds of others," said MacCallum in the Fox Nation show. "The guys who get hit on the beach or in the villages, just trying to carry out the mission. … They are the 'extras' in the movie, but for some family somewhere, they are their 'Harry Gray.' … the line on the family tree that just ends, a young man who never got to have a life, get married, grow old."

MacCallum began learning about her mother's cousin, Harry, when she was a young girl.
He was 18 years old in the summer of 1944, when he left Arlington, Mass., to join the Marines and fight in World War II.
Harry and nearly 7,000 fellow Marines were killed fighting on Iwo Jima, in what would prove to be one of the bloodiest battles of the war, as the U.S. military prepared for an invasion of Imperial Japan.
"As allied forces fought the Nazis in Europe," narrated MacCallum, "America was virtually alone in the battle against the Japanese in the Pacific."
For MacCallum's family, all they knew of the fate of their son, brother and cousin, was what they could glean from the letters and official reports – that he was killed on Iwo Jima on March 13, 1945.

After returning from a trip to Iwo Jima, retracing her uncle's footsteps, MacCallum received a tip that would lead to a series of incredible discoveries.
"I got a call from a researcher friend," said MacCallum in the Fox Nation piece. "He asked for a picture of Harry Gray to show his friend, Charlie Gubish. We knew Charlie was in the 34th replacement draft and had also been wounded on March 13."
"He was my buddy," Gubish told MacCallum as they sat across from each other in one remarkable scene. "My foxhole buddy. He’d always call me 'Pop' because I was 24 at that time and he was 18. He’d always say, 'Pop, sleep, I’ll watch.'"
Fox Nation's 'Minutes to Hiroshima'Video
"To find Charlies after all these years was not something I had ever anticipated," said MacCallum, reflecting on that interview. "His story lined up perfectly with everything we knew about that day and he was able to tell us things about Harry we would never have known."
Gubish remembered the day that Harry was killed, as they marched to the front for the very first time, providing the only first-hand account of his death.
"A mortar shell landed on the right-hand side, about 50 feet and nobody paid no attention," said Gubish. "Then there was one on the left-hand side, about the same distance. I hollered, hit the deck. They got us right in the middle. Well, that’s what killed him."
As MacCallum neared finishing her book, she decided to make another attempt at tracking more close acquaintances of her uncle, and again, it paid off.
She located Harry's friend, George Colburn, who had also enlisted in the Marines and lived in nearby Medford, Mass.

"Oh yeah," said Gubish, the weathered image sparking his recollection. "That was my buddy, Gray."
Harry Gray died 75 years ago, fighting for his country on a remote, volcanic island thousands of miles from home. He's a person who MacCallum never met, but whose story she knows well.

The incredible scene was the culmination of years of research that MacCallum spent closing the circle on a family story that had been passed down generations, but had never been fully completed until now.
This is all told in MacCallum's new book, "Unknown Valor: A Story of Family, Courage and Sacrifice from Pearl Harbor to Iwo Jima," and in associated Fox News and Fox Nation specials.
"In war movies there are the heroes and then there are hundreds of others," said MacCallum in the Fox Nation show. "The guys who get hit on the beach or in the villages, just trying to carry out the mission. … They are the 'extras' in the movie, but for some family somewhere, they are their 'Harry Gray.' … the line on the family tree that just ends, a young man who never got to have a life, get married, grow old."

MacCallum began learning about her mother's cousin, Harry, when she was a young girl.
He was 18 years old in the summer of 1944, when he left Arlington, Mass., to join the Marines and fight in World War II.
Harry and nearly 7,000 fellow Marines were killed fighting on Iwo Jima, in what would prove to be one of the bloodiest battles of the war, as the U.S. military prepared for an invasion of Imperial Japan.
"As allied forces fought the Nazis in Europe," narrated MacCallum, "America was virtually alone in the battle against the Japanese in the Pacific."
For MacCallum's family, all they knew of the fate of their son, brother and cousin, was what they could glean from the letters and official reports – that he was killed on Iwo Jima on March 13, 1945.

After returning from a trip to Iwo Jima, retracing her uncle's footsteps, MacCallum received a tip that would lead to a series of incredible discoveries.
"I got a call from a researcher friend," said MacCallum in the Fox Nation piece. "He asked for a picture of Harry Gray to show his friend, Charlie Gubish. We knew Charlie was in the 34th replacement draft and had also been wounded on March 13."
"He was my buddy," Gubish told MacCallum as they sat across from each other in one remarkable scene. "My foxhole buddy. He’d always call me 'Pop' because I was 24 at that time and he was 18. He’d always say, 'Pop, sleep, I’ll watch.'"

"To find Charlies after all these years was not something I had ever anticipated," said MacCallum, reflecting on that interview. "His story lined up perfectly with everything we knew about that day and he was able to tell us things about Harry we would never have known."
Gubish remembered the day that Harry was killed, as they marched to the front for the very first time, providing the only first-hand account of his death.
"A mortar shell landed on the right-hand side, about 50 feet and nobody paid no attention," said Gubish. "Then there was one on the left-hand side, about the same distance. I hollered, hit the deck. They got us right in the middle. Well, that’s what killed him."
As MacCallum neared finishing her book, she decided to make another attempt at tracking more close acquaintances of her uncle, and again, it paid off.
She located Harry's friend, George Colburn, who had also enlisted in the Marines and lived in nearby Medford, Mass.
