All four passengers in crashed helicopter in Brazil confirmed dead

Brasilia, Jan 12 (Prensa Latina) The Military Police (PM) of Brazil confirmed that all four people aboard the helicopter missing since December 31 and found in a wooded area of Sao Paulo on Friday have been found dead.

“They are all dead (the pilot, two women, who are mother and daughter, and a friend of both)”, confirmed Colonel Ronaldo Barreto de Oliveira, commander of the Sao Paulo PM Aviation.

The aircraft went down in the São Paulo city of Paraibuna, in the Paraíba Valley region.

The municipality is 120 kilometers away from Campo de Marte, in Sao Paulo, from where the helicopter had taken off, and at about 80 kilometers from Ilhabela, North Littoral of the territorial division, which was the final destination of the flight.

The location of the aircraft was reported by the São Paulo PM on social networks.

The helicopter was found on Friday in the same jungle area, where an antenna picked up the cell phone signal of two of all four passengers.
