A helicopter crashed into the roof of a Manhattan building Monday afternoon, killing the pilot, in what officials said was an attempt at an emergency landing. The crash at the building on Seventh Avenue, a few blocks south of Central Park, occurred about 1:45 p.m. Andrew M. Cuomo (D) told reporters that there was no indication of the crash being intentional. 20 mins ago there was a loud sound like a too-low #helicopter & I looked up and saw sheet of flame on roof and then smoke. News reports saying helicopter/small plane crash onto roof which would be consistent with what I heard/saw.
