The MCSO arrived a short while ago near Highway 19 and began to enter the wooded area thru some locked gates to locate the wreckage. Engine 4 is arriving on scene, District 2 is assuming Command. The MCSO Deputy on scene reports that there is most likely LIVE ammunitions on board, and to be careful when approaching. Also, he asked dispatch to call the FAA and the Military to notify them of this situation.
