Fox News
Six people onboard a tour helicopter flying over Hawaii's Big Island were safely evacuated after the aircraft crashed in a lava field on Wednesday, officials said.
Johnasen said the report came in at about 5 p.m. that the helicopter crashed near South Point, the southernmost tip on the Big Island. First responders could not access the site by vehicle so the Hawaii Fire Department sent two helicopters to reach the victims, who were airlifted to nearby ambulances.
The pilot, a man in his 50s, had been trapped but was later extracted and was in serious but stable condition. An 18-year-old woman was reported in serious and worsening condition. Four people were reported as ambulatory. No other information on their identities was immediately released.
