Pune, August 25 — A helicopter crashed in Pune, Maharashtra, India, leaving at least four people, including the pilot, injured. The condition of two of the injured is reported to be critical, according to NDTV.
The helicopter was en route to Hyderabad, Telangana, from Juhu, Mumbai, on Saturday morning when it crashed in the Pauri area of Pune. The incident was captured on camera, and the video quickly went viral on social media. The footage shows the helicopter circling in the sky before suddenly crashing to the ground.
This crash comes after a similar incident in May, when a helicopter carrying Shiv Sena leader Sushma Andhare crashed. Fortunately, the pilot and his assistant survived that crash.
It's worth noting that the Indian Meteorological Office has issued an orange alert for heavy rains in various districts of Pune and Satara in western Maharashtra, which could have contributed to the accident.
