EC120 crash in French Alps

March 2nd about 14:30 an EC120 crashed in Les Gets, Haute Savoie. There were 5 occupants and only one was slightly injured in the crash. The pilot reported a technical problem shortly after take-off before making an emergency landing which destroyed the aircraft. Witnesses report that it touched an electric- cable.
