AB139 crash in Italy

Has anyone heard anything on the crash of the AgustaBell 139 ship No.3. I have heard the control was lost at about 10000ft, the pilot strugled to regain control until 1000ft where he blew the rotor and he and the engineer bailed out with parachutes. I have heard that the pilot survived but the engineer was killed. Any update would be appreciated.
