Apparently a Robinson helicopter crashed on a south western germany highway (A5, near Bühl, which is somehow south of Karlsruhe).

Unfortunately the two male occupants are dead. The flight originated from the nearby Baden Airport.

Sorry, that I do not know more. I just was told from someone who passed the crash scene by car and searched for the news but could only find this:
