Two people died when a helicopter collided with a crane close to Vauxhall train station in central London during the morning rush hour, reports Scotland Yard. Nine people were also injured in the incident and have been taken to hospital.

Authorities have confirmed that one of the dead was onboard the helicopter at the time of the crash. Out of the nine who were injured in the incident, one is in a critical condition and the rest have light injuries.

London authorities told Reuters that although the investigation is in the early stages, there is “no suggestion of terrorism.”

Witnesses describe seeing the helicopter crash into a crane on St George Wharf tower before plummeting to the street below and bursting into flames, showering the surrounding area in rubble. Several cars were also caught in the ensuing fire.

The London Fire Brigade arrived in significant numbers and managed to put out the blaze and rescue a man trapped in a burning vehicle.

A spokesperson for the Fire Brigade said 22 fire rescue units were involved in a “large response.”

Police cordoned off the area as the crane is currently said to be in a “precarious position.”

Reports on Twitter also described gridlocked traffic around the crash site blocking the entry of emergency service vehicles.

Wandsworth Road, which runs past Vauxhall Station, has been closed in both directions and people are being evacuated from the surrounding area.

The helicopter may have been flying to or from nearby Battersea Heliport, media reports suggested.
