According to a company spokesperson, SBA Communications recently acquired the tower. It was previously owned in part by Univision and sold in September.

A helicopter crashed in Houston, Sunday, killing all four people on board including a child. The crash happened near Engelke Street and North Ennis Street just before 8 p.m. when a helicopter slammed into a communication tower behind homes in Houston’s Second Ward, causing a large explosion, Mayor John Whitmire said.

Video shared on Facebook by Jay Marroquin of MYSTUDIO HTX, a photography studio in Houston, showed the impact of the Sunday, Oct. 20, crash. A bright light filled part of the night sky after the helicopter struck the radio tower. Then, a loud explosion is heard. “This is gut-wrenching,” one commenter said.
