Kobe Bryant died in a helicoper crash in Calabasas Sunday morning ... TMZ Sports has confirmed. Kobe was traveling with at least 3 other people in his private helicopter when it went down. A fire broke out. Emergency personnel responded, but nobody on board survived. 5 people are confirmed dead. We're told Vanessa Bryant was not among those on board. Eyewitnesses also tell us that they heard the helicopter's engine sputtering before it went down. The cause of the crash is under investigation.

I was at a Lakers game at the Forum the night Magic Johnson returned with Cookie from Hawaii after his retirement from HIV. The outpouring of emotion was palpable. For the younger folks, who are in shock, this is overwhelming sad.

Fuck!!!!

Unconfirmed report that 3 daughters might have been on board. Youngest was a newborn, so probably not on the helo.

Heard about this earlier. This is just gut wrenching.

Fuckin A! Tragic!
Well my idea of Kobe acquiring an ownership stake went down with that helicopter.

His 13 year old daughter passed as well. There was another player (from mamba academy) and parent onboard.

ABC reported
