Responders observed a large clump of smoke and accessed the crash site by boat, where they found a small helicopter submerged in the water. “All we know now is we have a small helicopter that is down and we do have two occupants on board who were deceased,” Alton Fire Department Deputy Chief Matt Fischer said. “We are waiting on FAA and NTSB to arrive. It is still early in the investigation and we don’t have much more information than that.” Officials confirmed the two deceased were the helicopter’s occupants.
