So far, there are few details about the crash, but it's believed the chopper had two passengers, in addition to the pilot. All three died. A pedestrian on the ground was also killed, confirmed an official with the Transportation Safety Board.
The helicopter went down in a residential neighborhood and burst into flames.
Richard Fairchild saw the crash, which happened right in front of his residence. He told CTV Newsnet that the chopper had barely cleared a large pine tree and "within a second-and-a-half it crashed right in front of us -- literally in front of our window."
