    An inquest jury has concluded the deaths of five people in a helicopter crash at Leicester City's football stadium on October 27, 2018, including club owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha , were accidental

    An inquest jury has concluded the deaths of five people in a helicopter crash at Leicester City's football stadium on October 27, 2018, including club owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha , were accidental


    The chopper crashed in the club's car park and exploded after a Premier League match when the tail rotor failed.

    The family's continuing legal action against Italian defence company Leonardo who manufactured the aircraft.

    They're seeking compensation for a loss of earnings and other damages valued at 4.72 billion dollars in the High Court, the largest fatal accident claim in English legal history.
