Travis Barker & DJ AM Critically Injured in Fatal Plane Crash

                                                        

According to Yahoo! News former Blink 182 drummer Travis Barker (pictured below) and Hollywood’s most famous record spinner DJ AM (pictured above) have both been critically injured in a fatal Columbia, SC plane crash. Four people have reportedly died as a result of the crash.

Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Less Dorr said that they and four others were on a Learjet 60 that crashed after takeoff from Columbia, South Carolina. Two crewman were killed in the wreck but the other two were not identifed.

“Our understanding was that the two injured were Travis Barker and DJ AM” Dorr said.  He also stated that the small jet crashed onto a highway immediately following a burst of flames.  The crash happened after a concert in Columbia.

Some of you may remember Travis Barker from his reality show which aired on MTV alongside his wife at the time former Miss USA, Shanna Moakler entitled “Meet the Barkers”. The show aired from 2005 to 2006.

DJ AM was formerly engaged to Nicole Ritchie as most of you may remember as well. The two were together off and on for a while until the couple finally called it quits back in 2006.

The Luxe sends our prayers out to Travis & DJ AM, as we hope they recover and get well soon.
