The helicopter was destroyed when it crashed near Santo Stefano di Cingoli, Macerata whilst en route from Rome to Montecarotto. The impact point was in a sloping bare field in a valley. Photographs seem to show the helicopter burnt out but apparently contained in one area.
The circumstances of the accident are unclear; however, press reports quote witnesses as saying that the helicopter 'had been flying low for several minutes' and that it had 'clipped the roof of a house' and 'hit power lines' just before it crashed. The accident happened in daylight (10:30 hours Local time).
Amongst those killed in the accident was Ermanno Sarra, CEO of the Ars Medica Group
