It’s been confirmed that along with Kobe and his 13-year-old daughter GiGi....the pilot, two of GiGi’s young friends/teammates and their parents (including the head baseball coach for Orange Coast College), and a female basketball coach were on board. RIP.
They were headed to Kobe’s Mamba Academy for a youth basketball tournament when the copter crashed into a hill and burst into flames.
The LAPD had grounded its own copters yesterday morning because it was deemed too dangerous to fly in the dense fog, so first responders had to hike some of the way to the crash site.
