Search and rescue operations have been dispatched to waters off the coast of San Diego in search of crew members missing after their helicopter crashed Tuesday afternoon, officials said.

One crew member of the MH-60S helicopter has been found while an unknown number of others were still missing, the U.S. Third Fleet said in a statement.

"Search and rescue operations are ongoing with multiple Coast Guard and Navy air and surface assets," it said.

The MH-60S helicopter aboard the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln crashed at 4:30 p.m. PST into the sea about 60 nautical miles off the coast of San Diego while conducting routine flight operations, the Third Fleet said.

This is a developing story.
