On Saturday afternoon around 2:30 p.m. ET, a helicopter crashed in a field near Highway 10 off Rang des Écossais in Sainte-Brigide-d’Iberville, roughly 55 kilometres southeast of Montreal. All four occupants were killed and the aircraft was on fire upon arrival of emergency services. The Sûreté du Québec (SQ) major crimes unit is investigating along with investigators from the Transportation Safety Board of Canada.
The SQ has not released details about the victims or the origin and destination of the flight, pending further investigation. Officials believe it to be a private helicopter based on preliminary assessments. Firefighters extinguished the blaze within an hour but could not revive any survivors at the scene.
