Two men aboard, the 47-year-old pilot and a 33-year-old passenger, were hospitalised with minor injuries, Chamalbide said. Nobody on the ground was hurt.A pilot and passenger have been injured after a helicopter crashed into the front yard of a home in California.He did not have information about who owned it or who the occupants were working for.
“They heard a pop and then they started losing altitude — that’s as far as we know,” Chamalbide told reporters.A doorbell security camera caught the moment the helicopter came crashing down from the sky. Neicy Miramontes told the Fresno Bee that her 9-year-old son, Ezekiel Carranco, was walking to a friend’s house when he saw the helicopter in trouble.
