We are following breaking news out of florida tonight of a plane crash possibly involving former phillies pitcher, roy halladay, a plane that went down in the gulf of mexico. Is the same type that halladay recently purchased and talked about on social media. However the sheriff has not confirmed that halladay was on board. All they will say so far is there are no confirmed survivors. There say News Conference going on now we want to listen in to the sheriff. We are assisting with the investigation with ntsb. I can tell you sadly it has turned into a recovery, we recovered one body. A two passenger plane. I can confirm there was only one body involved and its sad to say its a friend of ours, its roy halladay. Many know roy as a cy young winner, future halloffamer. One of the best pitchers that ever pitched in the game of baseball. We know that roy is a person. A caring husband who loved his wife randy and loved his two boys tremendously and coached their baseball team. I can tell you e know you ray family of faith and our hearts and prayers go out to you. Because we know how much he means to you and i can tell you from the bottom of our hearts we know how much you all meant to him. Roy, as i said meant a lot to the Sheriffs Office. I am not speaking on behalf of the family, i dont have the honor to do that. I definitely dont. They will have someone much better speak on their behalf but i can speak as someone that knew him, he was a part of our Sheriffs Office. His kids when to school with some of our kids and was there wherever we needed him. He was one of the most humble human beings you would ever meet. Someone that won two cy youngs and one of the greatest pitchers in baseball he would walk in the room as if he was just anybody. It didnt matter who he met he was kind and generous and his family purchased a dog for us. K9 doc. He is out there working and saving lives and making our community safer. He was out there with us. We i saw him on friday we had a charity fishing event and sadly we were out in these waters here fishing for charity. And roy was out there with us. I can tell you that being a pilot and flying planes that was his passion, he would talk about it and refurbishing planes and family involved in flying and his dad. So roy, i can tell you he was one in a million. It is a true loss for us. I have no doubt he is looking down with god up in heaven. Because his heart was a heart of gold. He was an unbelievable human being. I am blessed and our Sheriffs Office is blessed to have known him. We have calls from our members to get down here as quick as possible. He was a personal friend of our Sheriffs Office. And so right now we are going be working with his family to provide any assistance we can. Questions and updates will come from them. Its a sad day for us here. And sad day for tampa bay. And a sad day for anyone that loves major league baseball. And even sadder for the family. I ask that you respect his family. Please do not go to his home. Give them time to grieve and on behalf of the family please pray for them many his have afternoon discussing security plans for the week ahead and the plane had gone down the tail number goes back to roys plane. And that moment your heart sinks and you start praying and started to come become this way because we were praying for the best. It could be a search and rescue and we would be just taking him to the hospital and something happened. But the worst Case Scenario happened. It breaks our hearts. [ inaudible ]. We have some information. I dont want to put anything out there because i cant confirm it. That goes back to ntsb with the plane and flight patterns. I can tell you we speculated where it came from. The information people are telling us he came out of. If i give you that information it could be wrong. I dont want to provide false information. Do you any reports of engine trouble or hear or see anything before the crash . There are witnesses that saw something, but all of that information goes to ntsb. The Sheriffs Office is not involved if the crash investigation, i dont want to put anything out there that they would not want us to release. [ inaudible ]. I dont have any information on the 911 call. All i know is that we got a call that a plane crashed by the power plant. When it comes to the scene, can you describe what First Responders saw when they arrived there . The maritime unit went out there. And they were out there and the plane was there and could see the tail number, there is debris and debris due to the tide has shifted a bit and that is why we are working with ntsb to get information. And our dive team went in as somebody as you can. This is shallow water, this is the flight pattern where people are getting lower, i can imagine that deputies that first arrived out there. They were hoping that the plane was low enough that someone could have ditched it and got out. [ inaudible ]. The plane its pretty much in condition however there is debris and pieces of the plane that floated away, and due to tide and shifts, we are working now to retrieve some of that for ntsb. That is pasco county Sheriffs Office talking about what he described as a brutally sad day in tampa florida, and sad day here in philadelphia. That roy halladay has died in a plane crash. 40 a pitcher bee loved in philadelphia as well as in toronto where he played.

A plane he loved and passion he loved and dreamed of owning this plane. And now he has died as a result of fly that plane over the waters off the coast of tampa, florida.
