"Chopper Plunges into Sea"

From RTHK:

"Thirteen people have been rescued after a helicopter crashed into the seas after attempting an emergency landing off Shun Tak Centre in Sheung Wan. The helicopter, which belonged to a private company, Sky Shuttle, was on its way to Macau when the accident happened. Two crew members and 11 passengers on board were all rescued, and no one sustained serious injuries. However, six passengers had to been sent to Queen Mary Hospital for treatment. The helicopter has been located, and rescue vessels are still at the scene of the crash. A spokeswoman from the company said it's believed that the helicopter had encountered engine failure."

Glad all are safe
