A Government Flying Services helicopter has come down in the Shing Mun Reservoir after one of its engines failed.
All three crew members managed to swim ashore. They are reportedly in good condition and have been taken to Yan Chai hospital for a check-up.
The helicopter was participating in the aftermath of a wildfire when police say one of its engines failed and the machine went down.
An R-T-H-K reporter at the scene says an inflatable device kept the chopper afloat while the crew clambered out and swam to safety.
