The 911 calls made regarding the helicopter crash that killed Kobe Bryant and eight others have been released.
The audio clips shed light on just how poor the weather conditions were in the Calabasas, California, area at the time, with many callers saying that they couldn't see the crash but heard it.
"I would call FAA [Federal Aviation Administration] and find out who is flying this area," the second caller continued."I was just thinking to myself, 'If this guy doesn't have night vision,' I mean, he's completely IFR [Instrument Flight Rules] ... he's got no visual." Also on the plane were mother and daughter, Sarah and Payton Chester. The pilot has been identified as Ara Zobayan.
"Furthermore, on Tuesday body examinations were performed on all nine decedents. Their causes of death were certified as blunt trauma. The manner of death was certified as accident," the press release states.
