Very sad news indeed. Hopefully the Cessna pilot will get well soon and is able to clarify the circumstances.
Any info on the company of the helicopter and reg? The news only said the chopper came from Weiden and is obviously green/silver.
"Flugschule Ostbayern" at Weiden airfield do have a green R44, but no silver colors.
