Debris From Helicopter Crash Found Along With Human Remains

BY TYLER FARDELL


Police have located debris and human remains of the helicopter which crashed off the coast of Port Stephens almost three weeks ago.

Police divers made the grisly discovery yesterday and were able to retrieve some of the debris from the wreckage, which was located 30 metres below the surface.

Recovery efforts last week focused on an area near Birubi Point after large amounts of debris were seen in the area.

It has been confirmed 5 people were on board the aircraft at the time of the crash.

Detectives from marine area command are continuing their investigation into the incident.

Police are expected to make a report for the coroner.
