https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/...licopter-crash

ESPN still finds a way to cram LeBron's name in the intro of the story.

RIP Mamba.

Judging from the photos from the scene it looks like there was heavy fog? I'm guessing it was a visibility issue?

Absolutely surreal.

Just after last night's historic event involving his legacy.

I’m a grown 42 year man who doesn’t have any rooting interest in the Lakers but I teared up when I heard the news. He may not have been perfect, but he is not only a great player but a great person.

Someone in this thread or the other one said TMZ said that eye witnesses reported the sound of engines sputtering before it went down

"A helicopter crashed and burst into flames Sunday morning amid foggy conditions in the hills above Calabasas, with multiple fatalities reported. The crash occurred shortly before 10 a.m. near Las Virgenes Road, south of Agoura Road, according to a watch commander for the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department. The crash ignited a brush fire and made it difficult for firefighters and emergency personnel to get to the aircraft, he said. Sources at the scene said they believed there were multiple fatalities, but the exact number was unclear. The fire was contained to the crash site, officials said. There were no homes in the area, and no roadways were impacted." - LA Times

You just hope it was the crash and not the fire...

5 total dead, I'd assume he wasn't the pilot.
