(CNN)Three people died when a helicopter crashed in the Grand Canyon Saturday, police confirmed to CNN.
"At approximately 5:20 p.m. (7:20 p.m. ET) a Papillon Airways EC-130 vessel carrying a pilot and six passengers was reported to have crashed near Quartermaster Canyon, within the Grand Canyon on the Hualapai Nation," police chief Francis E. Bradley Sr. of the Hualapai reservation said.
