BREAKING: Helicopter crashes near Terrace

Search and rescue crews and the RCMP are responding to a helicopter crash, west of Terrace.

It happened around 20-kilometres west of Terrace, on the slope of Sleeping Beauty mountain at around nine this morning.

Details are slim, but three people were on board — their current condition is not known.

The chopper belonged to Bailey Helicopters, based in Fort St. John, and Gerry Pash with the Victoria Joint Rescue Coordination centre says it was on a training mission that was overdue.
