LONDON (AP) _ Two American sailors died after falling from a U.S. submarine off the coast of southern England on Friday, the U.S. Navy said.

Four sailors fell from the USS Minneapolis-St. Paul as it was leaving Plymouth harbor, said Lt. Chris Servello, a spokesman for the U.S. 6th Fleet in Naples, southern Italy. All four were airlifted ashore by helicopter and taken to a hospital in Plymouth, where two were pronounced dead, he said.
