Tragedy touched on in Brazil. On 21 September a helicopter, on which a deputy, a deputy mayor, his press officer and obviously the pilot were traveling, is precipitate in the city of Engenheiro Caldas.

The aircraft, in the landing phase, remained entangled in high voltage cablescrashing to the ground.

According to the reconstructions, the pilot would not have noticed the reflective orange dots, designed to signal the presence of the wires.

Fortunately, all the people on board are survivors.

Among these, the federal deputy Hercílio Diniz, running for re-election, and the deputy mayor of Governador Valadares, David Barraso: for the latter it was necessary to be admitted to intensive care due to multiple rib fractures and a collapsed lung.

His Press officer and the pilot, instead, they are fine.
