snip-An Idaho Air Force Base was locked down and its weekend airshow was abruptly cancelled Sunday after an “incident” that local media and eyewitnesses reported to be a mid-air collision between the two Navy E/A-18G fighters that make up the service’s Growler demonstration team.

A photo posted by KBTV and a video posted to the popular Amn/nco/snco Facebook page appeared to show the two figthers locked in the air and tumbling towards the ground as all four crew members of the two-seat jets ejected. An official post by base officials confirmed an “incident” had ended the airshow.

The incident happened two miles northwest of Mountain Home Air Force Base in Idaho during the Gunfighter Skies Air Show, a base spokesperson told Task & Purpose."
