TMZ reporting Kobe Bryant died in helicopter crash...

Got an alert earlier on my Citizen app that a helicopter crashed in Calabasas (it’s about 12 miles from me) at about 10:00 AM.

Now I just got a news alert that Kobe Bryant died in a helicopter crash. Can’t get the article to pull up, though.

Yes. There are a bunch of sources reporting the crash. But not many confirming Kobe Bryant was on board. Probably trying to be cautious.

Authorities respond to the scene of a helicopter crash in Calabasas, California.

(CNN) — Five people were killed Sunday in a helicopter crash on a hillside in Calabasas, California, the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department said.

The sheriff's department received reports of the downed aircraft just after 1 p.m. ET (10 a.m PT), officials said in a tweet.

A helicopter crashed on a hillside in Calabasas, California.

Flames have been extinguished, the department said.

Calabasas is about 30 miles west of Los Angeles.

I was watching some of the videos on the citizen app as it was happening because they were saying it sparked a small brush fire, which can become a big fire quickly here.

Wowers, I was just reading this. Sad news. :sadangel:

I blame LeBron. :leaving:

:sadangel:

Kids too maybe. :sadangel: :sadangel:

R.I.P.

:iagree: The news is acting like the Pope died or something. The guy put balls through hoops. He didn't cure cancer or anything.

My condolences to his family and loved ones.

Don’t forget all the women he has been accused of raping and the times he has been accused of infidelity by his wife.
