According to SaharaReporters, a resident of Opebi Street in Lagos,
who witnessed a helicopter accident in the area on Friday, has decried
the lack of empathy by some Lagosians towards accident victims.
The helicopter, a Bell 206, with registration number 5N BQW, belongs to
Quorum Aviation, an air transportation and logistics company.
It was coming from Port Harcourt, Rivers State, with two crew members and a passenger, when the accident occured.
The man, who identified himself as John, told SaharaReporters that first
responders, who rushed to the scene stole victims’ mobile phones and
cash.
He also said he lost his phone while trying to rescue them.
He said, “It’s so bad we could do this to ourselves, some people
rushed here pretending as if they were helping us to bring out the
bodies of those involved in the accident only for them to steal their
phones and money. Even my phone was taken away, I gave it to someone
while trying to rescue them but the person ran away with it.”
John added that the helicopter hovered several times around the area before crashing into the building.
