At about 1 p.m. the Bell 206 helicopter, contracted to fly on behalf of PG&E, came in contact with a 115 kilovolt power line near Vacaville, PG&E spokeswoman Tamar Sarkissian said.
The helicopter crashed at about 1:30 p.m. near Lyon and Soda Springs roads, a Federal Aviation Administration spokesman said.
Was it really 30 minutes between contacting the line and the crash?
