Tail rotor failure?That would be my first guess, given the description of the event.

Loss of tail rotor thrust, Very hard to deal with at a low airspeed. I’m a UH-60 pilot and I can tell you this is one of the most feared emergencies. Any damage/problem with the tail rotor at low airspeed really REALLY sucks.
