Minutes ago, TMZ reported that Kobe Bryant was one of five persons killed in a helicopter crash in Calabasas.

The crash occurred a little over an hour ago. I will update this page as more information becomes available.

The LA County Sheriff’s department has confirmed 5 fatalities. Kobe’s wife was not on the flight.

It appears of the greatest to ever play the game is gone far too soon.

Edit: Sheriff’s Department confirming there were 9 total souls on board, including Kobe Bryant’s daughter, Gianna.
