A U.S. Navy parachutists crashed into a crowd of spectators at San Francisco's Fleet Week on NSI CommunitySunday, injuring a mother and her daughter.
The parachutist, a member of the Navy's Leap Frogs parachute demonstration team, was performing shortly after noon on Oct. 13.

"We cannot immediately assess what happened; however, we will review this incident to determine the cause," the Navy said in a statement to local news affiliate KTVU.
USA TODAY has contacted the Navy for more information.
