Fix history

Can an admin fix the history? We have two occurrences of this article. This article was redirected to Spanair Flight 22 after an edit history had been established. I don't care where the article lives, but we have two histories now. --Elliskev 15:29, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Regional Authority in Madrid has so far confirmed that more than 100 people have been killed as a result of the crash. In addition, it has also been confirmed that there were 166 passengers - including two babies, and 6 crew members on board.

Can anyone provide the official statement from the Regional Authority or a news article to confirm this?
