    Italian Rescue Helicopter crashes, killing six

     Helicopter on rescue mission in the Italian avalanche thought to be carrying six persons has crashed in a mountainous area of central Italy, local news reports say.


    The aircraft came down near the Campo Felice ski station after picking up an injured skier.
    Though,  reports said the rescue was not related to a recent avalanche in the same area, a spokesperson for the civil protection agency said it was aware of a helicopter incident but had no details.

    State broadcaster Rai said a rescue team had been flown in from the Penne operations headquarters, where the avalanche rescue is being coordinated.
