Such sad news this morning.
Former Blink-182 drummer and reality star Travis Barker and Adam "DJ AM" Goldstein were critically injured in a jet crash in South Carolina Friday night. Four other people on the jet were killed. Travis and Adam had performed with Perry Farrell and Gavin DeGraw earlier in the night, but it has been confirmed that Perry and Gavin were not on board.
"The plane crashed on takeoff and went through a fence near Highway 302, then crossed the road and went up an embankment before being filled with flames," an airport rep told People.com. "There was debris all over the runway. We are closed now and hope to reopen later today."
The jet was headed to Van Nuys, California .Travis and Adam were taken to a burn center in Augusta, Ga., where they were both listed in critical condition.
Travis has had on-and-off relationship with Shanna Moakler for years, which was documented on MTV's Meet the Barkers, and they have two children together. Adam was once engaged to Nicole Richie.
Keep them in your thoughts and prayers...
UPDATE: The four who were killed in the crash have been identified. They are: pilot Sarah Lemmon, 31, of Anaheim Hills, Calif.; co-pilot James Bland, 52, of Carlsbad, Calif.; security guard Charles Still, 25, of Los Angeles; and Barker's assistant Chris Baker, 26, also of Los Angeles.
Our condolences go out to all of their friends and families.
