Wow if true. I dont follow TMZ really but they usually are correct in this stuff, right?

They usually are spot on.

 

[Rabbuk]

It's weird no where else is reporting

They usually are spot on.

TMZ is really good about chasing famous people around and snapping pictures.

Drudge put it up. That's the only other place I've seen it.

Crazy if true

 

[DSMCy]

Starting to be reported by other news sources now.

 

[jsb]

Yikes, if that turns out to be true....

 

[NorthCyd]

Wow...

 

[LeaningCy]

LA Times also reporting the crash but haven't confirmed Kobe was one of the passengers yet.

I just got a news alert on my phone from WXYZ in Detroit saying that this is the case.

Wow

TMZ is actually pretty reliable when it comes to celebrity deaths.

This is ******* crazy

This one hit me hard. He appeared to be one of the greats that was going to continue being an ambassador for the league.

I don’t know what the crash rate is on small helicopters and planes but it sure seems like it’s high (at least relative to commercial flights).

 

[Jacktronic]

Rides in helicopters and little turboprop planes are things I want no part of. My anxiety would be through the roof.

 

[Chizit]

Multiple reports now. It's true.
