Helicoptercrash in Italy - 6 dead

[RotorSwede]

Swedish news have a short report on an italian helicopter crashing near Como during a sightseeingflight. Newspaper "Expressen" says it was a frenchbuilt helicopter. Pilot and 5 passengers were killed when the machine was completely destroyed in the crash.

Anyone got more info about this tragic incident ?

Best regards

I saw an orange coloured one carving up the sky low level around Lago Maggiore which is pretty close to Como... same one??? Around that area 99.9% of the helicopters have an Agusta decal on the side.
