Residents at a Collingwood, Ont., home had a very different type of visitor in their backyard Monday morning after a helicopter crash-landed.
Shortly before 10:00 a.m. this morning, provincial police officers along with the Collingwood Fire Department and EMS responded to reports of a helicopter crash near Mariners Haven in Collingwood.
Once on scene, emergency services located a helicopter which was on land, sitting next to a residence on the water.
Police say both the home and helicopter appear to have some damage as a result of a hard landing.
The pilot, and lone occupant of the aircraft, was attended to by EMS and later transported to a local hospital as a precautionary measure, police say.
OPP have now completed their investigation and the scene was released to the Transportation Safety Board of Canada for further investigation.
