It could have been Trooper 3. It is a Maryland State Police Air Medical helicopter that is staffed with state troopers who are trained paramedics. They respond to medical calls in PA and WV from time to time.

That's super cool! Thanks for the reply. I knew if I'd find answers anywhere, it'd be on Reddit. It just seems so far away from the border, but by chopper it's probably like 30 minutes. We have a lot of life flight helicopters in the area, but maybe they needed more. I just haven't heard about a mass casualty accident on 78 or anything that might require that.
