Horrible! Late last night Travis and DJ AM were on a plane that crashed.
To get the latest info out, I copied and pasted....
Both are in critical but stable condition.
We're told three men and one woman were killed in the crash.
Travis was taken by ambulance to the Joseph M. Still Burn Center in Augusta, GA and is in critical but stable condition. DJ AM, real name Adam Michael Goldstein, was airlifted to the burn center and is also in critical but stable condition. Barker had performed Friday night with Perry Farrell, Gavin DeGraw and DJ AM. It has not been confirmed if Farrell and DeGraw were also traveling on the same jet.
Travis Barker and DJ AM were passengers on plane that crashed, critically injuring them and killing four others. The jet was departing from a South Carolina airport.
A FAA spokesperson said the plane carrying six people attempted to take off shortly before midnight Friday from Columbia, South Carolina when people in the tower report seeing sparks. They said the plane went off the runway and crashed on a highway embankment, catching fire.
Travis Barker and DJ AM saved their own lives after their plane crashed by jumping out the door of the burning plane, almost immediately after the small jet came to a halt.As we reported, both are at a burn center, but it could have been fatal. The Lear jet was already on fire when they fled.
Travis Barker has been burned from the waist down, but he is expected to survive the plane crash. DJ AM's face was severely burned and is being tended to right now. We're also told the tragedy is all the worse because one of the passengers who died, Chris Baker, Travis' assistant on "Meet the Barkers," was married recently and has a new baby.
I'll try to post more as more info becomes available. Of course you can follow up on Yahoo, the news and TMZ.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Travis and his family. Also to DJ AM.
And of course to the families of the 4 who did not survive.
So tragic.
