Six tourists and their pilot were killed when their helicopter crashed into a heavily crevassed glacier in New Zealand during bad weather on Saturday, police said.
The sightseeing helicopter plunged into the Fox Glacier, a popular tourist site on the West Coast of the south Island, with weather conditions reported to be heavily overcast and raining at the time.
A paramedic and an alpine rescue team who were winched down to the crash site confirmed there were no survivors, a police spokesman said.
Efforts were under way to recover the bodies but police said this could take time because of the atrocious weather.
