(NEW YORK) — A helicopter crashed into New York City's East River Sunday night and flipped upside down in the water, killing all five passengers aboard, officials said.
A spokesman for the NYPD confirmed the deaths to The Associated Press early Monday morning.
Video taken by a bystander and posted on Twitter shows the red helicopter land hard in the water and then capsize, its rotors slapping at the water.
