The news is still breaking and there is still not a lot know but confirmations are coming in that NBA legend and Laker superstar, Kobe Bryant has died after a helicopter crash in California. Four other persons in the helicopter are also gone.
The news was originally broken by TMZ Sports a short time ago. As social media has blown up over the news, some local media are starting to confirm that indeed, Bryant was on board.
A Los Angeles law enforcement source just confirmed for me that Kobe Bryant and 4 other people died this morning in a helicopter crash.
